Paper Rosie

The sun goes down in Calvin county

  • The sun goes down in Calvin county
  • Neon lights from an old beer sign
  • Shown through the window out on the sidewalk
  • As I walked in to pass the time;
  • I looked around sat down at a table
  • Ordered beef on rye and a glass of wine
  • And through the door came a little old lady
  • She was selling paper roses and they only cost a dime
  • Paper Rosie Paper Rosie
  • She sold you Paper Roses; But they only cost a dime
  • Silver hair that's lost its' Gold
  • Trembling hand as she passed the rose
  • Red Crepe paper made nature's bouquet
  • Help a little old lady buy a rose today;
  • I took the rose from her trembing hand
  • With eyes of age she smilled and walked away
  • Like a breath of spring I could smell the rose
  • It came alive and I heard her say
  • Buy my Roses pretty roses
  • They're only made of paper
  • But they only cost a dime
  • I went to look for her outside
  • A spray of roses lay by her side
  • The sky lit up and the choir sang
  • A thousand voices as the church bells rang
  • They sang Rosie (Rosie) paper Rosie (Rosie)
  • She sold you Paper Roses
  • But they only cost a dime
  • Paper Rosie (Rosie) Paper Rosie (Rosie)
  • She sold you paper roses
  • But they only cost a dime
