Rose Marie

Rose Marie

When she turned seventeen - Rose Marie was so fair
With eyes emerald green - and long raven hair
To the envy of all the girls in town
Her beauty captured hearts for miles around

But Rose Marie - would never be
A young man's dream come true
Though every man - would seek her hand
She'd never say I do
Yet she still walks with beauty in their dreams
The girls all envy Rose Marie

Two young girls one dark night – carried their envy too far
Forsaking wrong from right – drove a knife straight through her heart
And together in a fit of jealousy
They took the life of pretty Rose Marie

And Rose Marie - would never be
A young man's dream come true
Though every man - would seek her hand
She' d never say I do
But she still walks with beauty in their dreams
The girls still envy Rose Marie


Rose Marie - would never be
A young man's dream come true
Though every man - would seek her hand
She' d never say I do
I still walk with beauty in their dreams

And Rose Marie - would never be
A young man's dream come true
Though every man - would seek her hand
She' d never say I do
But she still walks with beauty in their dreams
The girls still envy Rose Marie
