Jealous Words

O sweet Rosie Lee

Like a sister to me

But you thought I was playing you smart



Jealous words

Won't lie still

In my heart



You saw us there dancing

And you thought us romancing

Suspicion has ripped us apart



Jealous words

Won't lie still

In my heart



With your interpretation

On my reputation

You blinded yourself to the truth



Then to add some more weight

To your ramblings of late

Well, dear won't you bring us some proof?



How you cursed and you cried

As you locked me outside

You said I was bad from the start



Jealous words

Won't lie still

In my heart



Oh, I knew when we met

You'd never forget

Each pothole and bump in the road



And if I left your side

What a blow to your pride

Is you're mad at me, I suppose



The doubt in me's growing

And it hurts me just knowing

Another night's sleep will depart



Jealous words

Won't lie still

In my heart



Jealous words

Won't lie still

In my heart



Jealous words

Won't lie still

In my heart
