Gene Watson
Paper Rosie

(Dallas Harms)

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...


Mirror lyrics:

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.
They sang Rosie (Rosie), paper Rosie (Rosie)

A thousand voices as the church bells rang.
The sky lit up and the choir sang
A spray of roses lay by her side
I went to look for her outside

They're only made of paper but they only cost a dime.
Buy my Roses, pretty roses

It came alive and I heard her say.
Like a breath of spring I could smell the rose
With eyes of age, she smilled and walked away
I took the rose from her trembing hand
Help a little old lady buy a rose today
Red crepe paper, made nature's bouquet
Trembling hand as she passed the rose
Silver hair that's lost its' gold

She sold you paper Roses, but they only cost a dime.
Paper Rosie, paper Rosie

She was selling paper roses and they only cost a dime.
And through the door came a little old lady
Ordered beef on rye and a glass of wine
I looked around, sat down at a table
As I walked in to pass the time
Shown through the window out on the sidewalk
Neon lights from an old beer sign
The sun goes down in Calvin county
