Jackson Browne - Rosie lyrics

She was standing at the load-in<br>When the trucks rolled up<br>She was sniffing all around<br>Like a half grown female pup<br>She wasn't hard to talk to<br>Looked like she had nowhere to go<br>So I gave her my pass<br>So she could get in and see the show<br><br>Well I sat her down right next to me<br>And I got her a beer<br>While I mixed that sound on stage<br>So the band could hear<br>The more I watched her watch them play<br>The less I could think of to say<br>And when they walked off stage<br>The drummer swept that girl away<br><br>But rosie you're all right -- you wear my ring<br>When you hold me tight -- rosie that's my thing<br>When you turn out the light -- I've got to hand it to me<br>Looks like it's me and you again tonight rosie<br><br>Well I guess I might have known from the start<br>She'd come for a star<br>Might have told my imagination not to run too far<br>Of all the times that I've been burned<br>By now you'd think I'd have learned<br>That it's who you look like<br>Not who you are<br><br>But rosie you're all right -- you wear my ring<br>When you hold me tight -- rosie that's my thing<br>When you turn out the light -- I've got to hand it to me<br>Looks like it's me and you again tonight rosie
