Version 1 of Jackson Browne Lyrics Rosie (http://www.mp3lyrics.org/j/jackson-browne/rosie/v1.html) Version 1 of the lyrics | ||||||||||||
| 1 | She was standing at the load-in | Now the seats are all empty | 1 | ||||||||||
| 2 | When the trucks rolled up | Let the roadies take the stage | 2 | ||||||||||
| 3 | She was sniffing all around | Pack it up and tear it down | 3 | ||||||||||
| 4 | Like a half grown female pup | They're the first to come and last to leave | 4 | ||||||||||
| 5 | She wasn't hard to talk to | Working for that minimum wage | 5 | ||||||||||
| 6 | Looked like she had nowhere to go | They'll set it up in another town | 6 | ||||||||||
| 7 | So I gave her a pass | Tonight the people were so fine | 7 | ||||||||||
| 8 | So she could get in and see the show | They waited there in line | 8 | ||||||||||
| 1 | And when they got up on their | 1 | |||||||||||
| 2 | feet they made the show | 2 | |||||||||||
| 3 | And that was sweet-- | 3 | |||||||||||
| 4 | But I can hear the sound | 4 | |||||||||||
| 5 | Of slamming doors and folding chairs | 5 | |||||||||||
| 6 | And that's a sound they'll never know | 6 | |||||||||||
| 9 | Well, I sat her down right next to me | Now roll them cases out and lift them amps | 9 | ||||||||||
| 10 | And I got her a beer | Haul them trusses down and get'em up them ramps | 10 | ||||||||||
| 11 | While I mixed that sound on stage | 'Cause when it comes to moving me | 11 | ||||||||||
| 12 | So the band could hear | You guys are the champs | 12 | ||||||||||
| 13 | The more I watched her watch them play | But when that last guitar's been packed away | 13 | ||||||||||
| 14 | The less I thought of to say | You know that I still want to play | 14 | ||||||||||
| 15 | And when they walked off stage | So just make sure you got it all set to go | 15 | ||||||||||
| 16 | The drummer swept that girl away | Before you come for my piano | 16 | ||||||||||
| 17 | But Rosie you're all right, you wear my ring | But the band's on the bus | 17 | ||||||||||
| 18 | When you hold me tight, Rosie that's my thing | And they're waiting to go | 18 | ||||||||||
| 19 | When you turn out the light, I've got to hand it to me | We've got to drive all night | 19 | ||||||||||
| 20 | It looks like it's me and you again tonight, Rosie | and do a show in Chicago | 20 | ||||||||||
| 7 | or Detroit, I don't know | 7 | |||||||||||
| 8 | We do so many shows in a row | 8 | |||||||||||
| 9 | And these towns all look the same | 9 | |||||||||||
| 10 | We just pass the time in our hotel rooms | 10 | |||||||||||
| 11 | And wander 'round backstage | 11 | |||||||||||
| 12 | Till those lights come up and we hear that crowd | 12 | |||||||||||
| 13 | And we remember why we came | 13 | |||||||||||
| 21 | Well I guess I might have known from the start | Now we got country and western on the bus | 21 | ||||||||||
| 22 | She'd come for a star | R and B, we got disco in eight | 22 | ||||||||||
| 23 | Could have told my imagination not to run too far | tracks and cassettes in stereo | 23 | ||||||||||
| 24 | Of all the times that I've been burned | We've got rural scenes & magazines | 24 | ||||||||||
| 25 | By now you'd think I'd have learned | We've got truckers on the CB | 25 | ||||||||||
| 26 | That it's who you look like not who you are | We've got Richard Pryor on the video | 26 | ||||||||||
| 14 | We got time to think of the ones we love | 14 | |||||||||||
| 15 | While the miles roll away | 15 | |||||||||||
| 16 | But the only time that seems too short | 16 | |||||||||||
| 17 | Is the time that we get to play | 17 | |||||||||||
| 27 | But Rosie you're all right, you wear my ring | People you've got the power over what we do | 27 | ||||||||||
| 28 | When you hold me tight, Rosie that's my thing | You can sit there and wait | 28 | ||||||||||
| 29 | When you turn out the light, I've got to hand it to me | Or you can pull us through | 29 | ||||||||||
| 30 | It looks like it's me and you again tonight, Rosie | Come along, sing the song | 30 | ||||||||||
| 31 | It looks like it's me and you again tonight | You know you can't go wrong | 31 | ||||||||||
| 32 | It looks like it's me and you again tonight, Rosie | 'Cause when that morning sun comes beating down | 32 | ||||||||||
| Rosie, Rosie, Rosie, Rosie | You're going to wake up in your town | ||||||||||||
| 18 | But we'll be scheduled to appear | 18 | |||||||||||
| 19 | A thousand miles away from here | 19 | |||||||||||
| 20 | People stay just a little bit longer | 20 | |||||||||||
| 21 | We want to play -- just a little bit longer | 21 | |||||||||||
| 22 | Now the promoter don't mind | 22 | |||||||||||
| 23 | And the union don't mind | 23 | |||||||||||
| 24 | If we take a little time | 24 | |||||||||||
| 25 | And we leave it all behind and sing | 25 | |||||||||||
| 26 | One more song-- | 26 | |||||||||||
