Rosy Won't You Please Come Home

.

Rosy won't you please come home?

Mama don't know where you've been.

Rosy won't you please come home?

Your room's clean and no one's in it.

.

Oh my Rosy, 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.

.

Rosy won't you please come home?

Since you've joined the upper classes,

You don't know us anymore.

Live and let your troubles pass.

.

Rosy, Rosy, will you write and tell me,

If you don't want to come back?

I would sacrifice all I have

To have a happy home once more.

.

Rosy 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.

.

Rosy, Rosy, 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.

.

Rosy won't you please come home?

Mama don't know where you've been.

Rosy won't you please come home?

Your room's clean and no one's in it.

.

Oh my Rosy, 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.

.

Oh Rosy, will you please come back?

.
