I come from the moor and the mointain, from the waterfall and stream. I've turned my back on the mountain track; I'm walking in a dream. And ev'ry new horizon to mee it looks the same But ev'rywhere looks old and bare while trav'ling on the plain. There's no-one rides this road with me, a plainsman rides alone. The welcome waits by a city gate, no voice to call me home. Alone I came into this place, and that is how I will go And all I learn is the season's turn, that's all I need to know. Oh the world is hung with silver tongues wiht good advice to give. If you can't show me how to die, don't tell me how to live. The plainsman's song, though it's seldom long, it's more than meets the ear And all I believe is the falling leaves at the turning of the year.
In know Rosie, You're living in a world you didn't make And I know it's hard feeling happy When the things you want aren't even there to take
(Chorus:) Come on Rosie, rosin up the bow For the more I learn it's the less I seem to know Lie down cozy and let's learn to take things slow For the more I learn it's the less I seem to know Of my Rosie Come on, my Rosie, rosin up the bow.
Throw away your uniform Now's the time to take things by the hand Come on in and take your coat off Settle down and listen to the band And ain't that grand, Rosie
