It was late I didn't have a special date I was sitting on a park bench By the lake I heard a cry Aand very much to my surprise Someone kissed me, Made me open up my eyes I turned around to solve this mystery And who d'ya think was sittin' next to me My sweet Rosalie Though she always plays around, She never brings me down, My sweet Rosalie. Sweet Rosalie she is always full of fun I'm the only one for my Rosie, My sweet Rosalie. We started home, It was almost time for tea. It's been a good day for me and Rosalie. It's fun together 'cos we're such a perfect pair And when I want her I know she's always there. She's ev'rything a guy could ever need I love her Oh I love her yes indeed. My sweet Rosalie Though she always plays around, She never brings me down, My sweet Rosalie. Sweet Rosalie she is always full of fun I'm the only one for my Rosie, My sweet Rosalie. Though she always plays around, She never brings me down, My sweet Rosalie. Sweet Rosalie she is always full of fun I'm the only one for my Rosie, My sweet Rosalie. She's the only one for me The cutest little puppy dog you'll see.
