Текст песни Rosie (Joan Armatrading) с переводом

He has little red feet

His stockin’s in his shoes

Lipstick and rouge on his face

He has his hair piled high

Has a red umbrella

And carries his head in the sky

And I said «Oh Rosie, don’t you do that to the boy

Don’t you come on so willing

Don’t you come on so strong

It can be so chillin'

When you ain’t so willin'

And your warmth sets like the sun»

He has a little baby brother

A big fat mama

His sister asks for dimes on the street

He doesn’t feel it’s a cover

In fact he knows

For sure he can please

I said he’s out there right now

Running with the devil

Struttin' down the alley ways

With the nervous young hopeful

At his heel

And know his satisfaction won’t drive him away

And I said «Oh Rosie, don’t you do that to the boy

Don’t you come on so willing

Don’t you come on so strong

It can be so chillin'

When you ain’t so willin'

And your warmth sets like the sun»

He’s not looking for a friend

He’s not looking for a lover

There in the crowded bar

He has rings on his fingers

He’s there to tease

You know he only wants to take things too far

And I said «Oh Rosie, don’t you do that to the boy

Don’t you come on so willing

Don’t you come on so strong

It can be so chillin'

When you ain’t so willin'

And your warmth sets like the sun»

I said «Oh Rosie, don’t you do that to the boy

Don’t you come on so willing

Don’t you come on so strong

It can be so chillin'

When you ain’t so willin'

And your warmth sets like the sun»

(And I said «Oh Rosie, don’t you do that to the boy

Don’t you come on so willing

Don’t you come on so strong

It can be so chillin'

When you ain’t so willin'…)
