Ring Around Rosie's Finger
Moe Bandy · Hank Williams You Wrote My Life (Columbia) [1976]
(Connie Smith - Cathy Manser)
I never thought that one woman could hold me
I've never been the one woman kind
But ever since Rosie said she really loved me
I can't get Rosie out of my mind.
I wanna put a ring around Rosie's finger
While I got a hold on Rosie's heart
Wanna put a ring round Rosie's finger
Cause Rosie promised me (Rosie promised me)
Rosie promised me that we'll never part.
--- Instrumental ---
Rosie's all woman yes Rosie's a lady
The kind of a woman that's so hard to find
And now that my Rosie has promised to marry
I can hardly wait to make Rosie mine.
I wanna put a ring around Rosie's finger
While I got a hold on Rosie's heart
Wanna put a ring round Rosie's finger
Cause Rosie promised me (Rosie promised me)
Rosie promised me that we'll never part.
Rosie promised me (Rosie promised me)
Rosie promised me that we'll never part...
I never thought that one woman could hold me
I've never been the one woman kind
But ever since Rosie said she really loved me
I can't get Rosie out of my mind.
I wanna put a ring around Rosie's finger
While I got a hold on Rosie's heart
Wanna put a ring round Rosie's finger
Cause Rosie promised me (Rosie promised me)
Rosie promised me that we'll never part.
--- Instrumental ---
Rosie's all woman yes Rosie's a lady
The kind of a woman that's so hard to find
And now that my Rosie has promised to marry
I can hardly wait to make Rosie mine.
I wanna put a ring around Rosie's finger
While I got a hold on Rosie's heart
Wanna put a ring round Rosie's finger
Cause Rosie promised me (Rosie promised me)
Rosie promised me that we'll never part.
Rosie promised me (Rosie promised me)
Rosie promised me that we'll never part...
