Lyrics
(American folk song)
1. Rosie darling Rosie
Ha ha Rosie
Rosie darling Rosie
Ha ha Rosie
2. Way down yonder in Baltimore…
Need no carpet on my floor…
3. Grab your partner and follow me…
Let’s go down to Galilee…
4. Rosie, darling, hurry…
If you don’t mind you gonna get left…
5. You steal my partner, you won’t steal her no more…
Better stay from round my door…
6. Stop right still and study yourself…
See that fool where she got left…
