Good to see you again, Rosie
I know I've changed a lot since then
You're lookin' fine, babe
Three years that ain't long, Rosie
I still remember our song
When you were mine, babe
Times change, times change I know
But it sure moves slow
Down river when you're locked away
Hey why didn't you write, Rosie
I stayed awake most every night
Countin' my time babe
Oh no I ain't mad Rosie
I know you had to mind your dad
But just a line babe
Oh sure I remember then
we went off to school
Ain't that right
Well he ain't no fool
He's a good man Rosie
Hold him tight as you can
Don't ask me why babe
Yeah nice seein' you again Rosie
Me I got things to do
Well good-bye babe
chorus
chorus
Rosie down river
down river when you're locked away
Rosie I'm losing
Down river
