Sweet Rosie O'Grady
Words and music by Maude Nugent
Song Lyrics
Just down around the corner
of the street where I reside,
There lives the cutest little girl
that I have ever spied;
Her name is Rose O'Grady and,
I don't mind telling you,
That she's the sweetest little Rose
the garden ever grew.
Sweet Rosie O'Grady,
My dear little Rose,
She's my steady lady,
Most ev'ryone knows.
And, when we are married,
How happy we'll be;
I love sweet Rosie O'Grady,
And Rosie O'Grady loves me.
I never shall forget the day
she promised to be mine,
As we sat telling love tales
in the golden summer time.
'Twas on her finger that I placed
a small engagement ring,
While in the trees, the little birds
this song they seemed to sing!
Sweet Rosie O'Grady,
My dear little Rose,
She's my steady lady,
Most ev'ryone knows.
And, when we are married,
How happy we'll be;
I love sweet Rosie O'Grady,
And Rosie O'Grady loves me.
