Lyrics Marianne Faithfull – Rosie, Rosie

Rosie, won’t you please come home
Mama don’t know where you’ve been
Rosie won’t you please come home
Your room’s clean and no one’s in it

Oh, my Rosie, how I miss you
You are all the world to me
Take a look and see if you like it
If you like it, please, come back

Rosie, won’t you please come home
Since you joined the upper classes
You don’t know us anymore
Live and let your trouble pass

Rosie, Rosie, where are you, tell me
If you don’t want to come back
I will sacrifice all I have
To have a happy home once more

Rosie, won’t you please come home
Two long years have passed away
Since you tried to change your life
Christmas wasn’t quite the same

Rosie, Rosie, got any answers?
You are miles across the sea
And I’ll bake a cake if you tell me
You are on the first plane home

Rosie, won’t you please come home
Mama don’t know where you’ve been
Rosie won’t you please come home
Your room’s clean and no one’s in it

Oh, my Rosie, how I miss you
You are all the world to me

Rosie…
