Roasie Lou

I met a lovely girl right outside the bar
Where some pals were singing
"Whiskey In The Jar"
She wanted to leave without paying a dime
She took me by the hand
Sealing our first crime

Every night we went out
Looking for new thrills
We're snitching wallets
She was showing me her skills

Our pockets full of cash
We were walking arm in arm
I looked at her and I smiled
Couldn't resist her charm

My precious one, my Roasie Lou
My heart belongs to you
My dearest one, my Roasie Lou
All the memories we went through

One day, she left our house
Not telling me her plan
I still wish she had
For it was the wrong man

Now she's lying in my arms
In death, I bid farewell
Her shiny eyes forever gone
But our story I will tell

My precious one, my Roasie Lou
My heart belongs to you
My dearest one, my Roasie Lou
All the memories we went through

Forever you'll be mine
We're partners in crime
My dearest one, my Roasie Lou
All the memories we went through

My precious one, my Roasie Lou
My heart belongs to you
My dearest one, my Roasie Lou
All the memories we went through

Her shiny eyes forever gone
But our story I will tell
