Rosa and Billy
Rosa will you marry me upon midsummer's day Don your mother's wedding gown and I'll carry you away I'll love you as long as I breathe And a decade longer should you grieve, should you grieve Billy I cannot marry you for your dollars are too few 19 years in this trailer park are all that I can do Though I admit I'm blessed to know The finest man in Fennario, Fennario Rosa will you wait for me, for tomorrow I hit the trail I'm riding North Dakota way to work the Bakken shale In two years away we'll go and leave for good Fennario, Fennario Rosa will you marry me, for now I am returned From where the prairie winds do blow and the methane fires burn Those Dakota nights are cold But lo now I am rich with gold, rich with gold Billy I cannot marry you, for alas I am with child It is not yours though I wish it were, oh the waiting made made me wild I don't even know the dude And I'm not feeling over you, over you Rosa I will marry you, and raise him as my own For I would claim another man's heir before I face the night alone And I have lain with Williston whores Their warmth is none compared to yours, compared to yours |
