lyrics

Rosa with the neon yellow hair
Takes the high road when she’s headed to dispair
When the people on the block say she’s no good
She’s read them all, she knows what makes their neighborhood

Rosa

The vaquero on the train, says he knows her from somewhere
Or sometime when he was younger and she had raven hair
And what’s that story about a husband’s sudden gory end?
You don’t know me stranger, but I hope someday you find your friend

Rosa, Rosa

There’s a lot about her, you’ll never, ever know

Rosa, Rosa

She’s got that bullseye tattoo, covered by her curls
All filled up by the potshots of the men who shook her world
And it’s the evil eye armband for the ones who like to lurk
In bars at the witching hour when she wants to do her work

Rosa, Rosa

There’s a lot about her, you’ll never, ever know
