O sweet Rosie Lee 
Like a sister to me 
But you thought I was playing you smart 

Jealous Words 
Won’t lie still 
In my heart 

You saw us there dancing 
And you thought us romancing 
Suspicion has ripped us apart 

With your interpretation 
On my reputation 
You blinded yourself to the truth 
To add some more weight 
To your ramblings of late 
Well, dear won’t you bring us some proof 

How you cursed and you cried 
As you locked me outside 
You said I was bad from the start 

How your father abused 
And your mother accused 
They said I was acting a part 

O I knew when we met 
You’d never forget 
Each pothole and bump in the road 
And if I left your side 
What a blow to your pride 
You’re that better than me, I suppose 

O the doubt in me’s growing 
And it hurts me just knowing 
Another night’s sleep will depart
