Pete Seeger and Arlo Guthrie - "Sweet Roseyanne"

 

 

Oh, Rosey-anne, sweet Rosey-anne

Bye bye, my Rosey-anna

I'm gonna away, but not to stay

And I won't be home tomorrow.


   Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye, bye bye,

   Bye bye, my Rosey-anna

   Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye, bye bye,

   And I won't be home tomorrow.


Oh, a dollar a day is a sailor's pay

Bye bye, my Rosey-anna

It's easy come, then he pisses it away

And I won't be home tomorrow.


Rosey-anne, sweet Rosey-anne

Bye bye, my Rosey-anna

I'm gonna away, but not to stay

I won't be home tomorrow.

 

      Rosyanne is a song from the menhaden fishery in the lower Chesapeake. We miss you Mr. Seeger.
