thanks Uncle M!
Well I'm sitting on a windowsill, blowing my horn
Nobody's up except the moon and me,
And a lazy old tomcat on a midnight spree
All that you left me was a melody.
Rosie, why do you evade? Rosie, how can I persuade? Rosie...
And the moon's all up, full and big, apricot tips in an indigo sky,
And I've been loving you, Rosie, since the day I was born
And I'll love you, Rosie 'til the day I die.
Rosie, why do you evade? Rosie, how can I persuade? Rosie...

That is kind of a scary version! I hope rosie doesn't have nightmares!
ReplyDeleteIt is scary? I didn't have a chance to check out the other version. I just assumed that was Tom Wait's style...!
ReplyDeleteTom Waits is usually pretty scary, but the version from the album is less scary and prettier (in that gruff wierdo kind of way).
