  PAPER ROSIE

  Recorded by Gene Watson

  Words and music Dallas Harms

  

  The [C] sun goes down in Calvin [F] county

  Neon [G7] lights from an old beer [C] sign

  Shown through the window out on the [F] sidewalk

  As I walked [G7] in to pass the [C] time;

  I looked around, sat down at a [F] table

  Ordered beef on [G7] rye and a glass of [C] wine

  And through the door came a little old [F] lady

  She was [G7] selling paper roses and they only cost a [C] dime.

  

  Paper [G7] Rosie ...Paper [F] Rosie ...

  She sold [G7] you Paper Roses; But they only cost a [C] 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.
