Hey Rosie Rosie Rosie Blue
Everybody needs some love and so do you
Hey Rosie Rosie Rosie Blue
Get out of your closet and put on your purple shoes

There was this girl that I once knew
Let's just say her name was Rosie, Rosie Blue
Rosie was pretty although she barely smiled
Her eyes seem dark and I always wonder

Rosie never spoke much about her home
She said she loves poetry, she even writes her own
I met Rosie in Morocco, Agadir
And how I wish that Rosie was still here
Then I would say Rosie, Rosie don't be so sad
Rosie don't you know life ain't all that bad

Hey Rosie Rosie Rosie Blue
Everybody needs some love and so do you
Hey Rosie Rosie Rosie Blue
Get out of your closet and put on your purple shoes

Oh I wish I knew that Rosie was depressed
She couldn't find love 'cause her inside was a mess
In this crazy world we're living in
There's too many Rosie Blues
And if you take a moment I'm quite sure you might
Think of a few

Hey Rosie Rosie Rosie Blue
Everybody needs some love and so do you
Hey Rosie Rosie Rosie Blue
Get out of your closet and put on your purple

Hey Rosie Rosie Rosie Blue
Everybody needs some love and so do you
Hey Rosie Rosie Rosie Blue
Get out of your closet and put on your purple shoes
