I¡¯m long past hungry
|
I need a bed
|
I got some real wild things
|
Runnin¡¯ through my head
|
Oh Rosie, don¡¯t forget me now
|
|
I¡¯ve been to Tulsa
|
And New Mexico
|
Still got Tucson and
|
Colorado left to go
|
Oh Rosie don¡¯t forget me now
|
|
Chorus:
|
Do you remember
|
Our lucky star
|
We gave all our wishes to
|
Now I¡¯m in Denver
|
In this old bar
|
Tryin¡¯ to do anything to hang on to you
|
And not be blue
|
|
It¡¯s all-night TV
|
With nothin¡¯ on
|
I should be goin¡¯ but I¡¯m
|
Too far gone
|
Oh Rosie, don¡¯t forget me now
|
|
There¡¯s rotten singers
|
Lousy art
|
Western swingers
|
And my old broken heart
|
Oh Rosie, don¡¯t forget me now
|
|
Chorus
|
|
It¡¯s a hard old highway
|
A long slow burn
|
I think about ya Rosie
|
At every little turn
|
So don¡¯t you worry
|
Please don¡¯t cry
|
When we¡¯re together
|
That old time will fly on by
|
Oh Rosie, don¡¯t forget me now
|
|
Chorus
|
|
It¡¯s a hard old highway
|
A long slow burn
|
I think about ya Rosie
|
At every little turn
|
Oh Rosie, don¡¯t forget me now
|

Oh Rosie
