Rosie Pearl
is a big blonde girl
and she sails around
like a steamboat
takes her time
and her eyes, they shine
for Tom
Hey there, Tom Cat
where've you been to?
hey there, Tom Cat
say, where've you been to?
I'm so lonely
been cryin'
waitin' up for you
you hear that?
you hear that?
I got your name, Tom
I got your children
what about the children?
Tom Cat
Tom Cat
you ole rat
where've you been to?
Johnny cheated
Frankie killed him
Johnny cheated
say, Frankie killed him
shot and killed him
I don't blame her
I'd a done it too
you hear that?
you hear that?
you deal and promise
you kiss and swing lo
footslippin' out the window
Tom Cat
Tom Cat
you ole rat
where've you been to?...
