One More Time Around Rosie

(album: Jukin' - 1971)

Rosie got religion, learned it on the farm
Got to New York City, lined a needle in her arm
Got to New York City, Leroy led the way
Made her something special doing business on Broadway

One more time around Rosie
Hey I'm tugging on your sleeve
Won't you give me just
One more time around Rosie
The bus for Cincinnati getting ready to leave

Out from Redfield, South Dakota, all her friends went to LA
Guess her mama never told her shoulda thumbed the other way
'Cause Aunt Betty drive a Cobra up and down the Sunset Strip
In the same old nasty business, but there's cowboys in her kip

Yeah, gimme one more time around Rosie
Yeah, then I got to go, yeah
Won't you give me just
One more time around Rosie
One more time please kindly take it slow

One more time around Rosie
Slide it right between the eyes
Won't you give me just one more time around Rosie
Lift me up and slap me with your thighs

I hear Leroy living good now
Reads the daily news, drive eight track El Dorado
Sporting high Italian shoes
He owes it all to Rosie
The booze, the shoes, the car and them uptown hotel movies
What made that little Brownie a star

Yeah, one more time around Rosie
I'm the one who likes it upside down
Won't you give me just one more time around Rosie
Your favorite boy from Muncie's back in town
