Rosie Jayne
Words and Music by Charles harter © 2007
I ain?t no sailor
The sea turns me green
I?m a land lubber
If you know what I mean
But I was alone
And she was too
And her rum helped me change my view
And who could not but fall in love with
Rosie Jayne?
She was a woman who?d seen a fair few years
We got to talk?n
Shared some laughs and some tears
And we were cooking
If you know what I mean
Then she looked me in the eye and said
?We need a change of scene?
Oh Rosie Jayne
We were meant to be
Like two ships at night ? on a restless sea
And I?m quite happy to walk
Along this wharf with you
And with the moon on that water ?
It?s romantic too!
I got to thinking
How lucky can you be?
But then she started up a gang plank
That seemed a mile above the sea
?What are you waiting for?? she cried
As I turned my shade of green
That looks like a million dollar yacht that you?ve got
But it aint my scene
Oh Rosie Jayne
We were meant to be
Like two ships at night ? on a restless sea
But the wind is getting stronger
And your cabin?s gonna sway
And I hate to say goodbye ? but there?s no other way!
Yeah I hate to say goodbye but there?s no other way
