lyrics

Oh wandering Rosa Oh where you been?
Tell me my wandering Rosa will I see you again?
I asked the sun & moon & the ol’ gypsy wind
They all say my wandering Rosa is on the run again

With her piano black hair & them guitar brown eyes
She breaks an ese’s heart in two & then down the road she flies
I tell ya - I met her down in Austin town - I was packing up my gear
We two-stepped ‘round that Continental Club & then she disappeared

Oh wandering Rosa Oh where you been?
Tell me my wandering Rosa will I see you again?
I asked the shooting stars & the ol’ gypsy wind
They all say my wandering Rosa is on the run again

Next time I saw Rosa was way down in Lake Atitlán
Waving her jazz cigarette like a magic wand
I tell ya- I’ve kissed a thousand angels & I’ve scared a million ghosts
Ain’t no reina like Rosa - ain’t nothing close

Oh wandering Rosa Oh where you been?
Tell me my wandering Rosa will I see you again?
I asked all the quetzales & the ol’ gypsy wind
They all say my wandering Rosa is on the run again

East of Babylon deep in downtown Hell-A
Where the freaks shriek til dawn & then they hustle all the day
I tell ya- I swear I saw my brownskin gal prowlin’ 7th & Main
Someday I’m gonna buy that lady a cloudy diamond ring

Oh wandering Rosa Oh where you been?
Tell me my wandering Rosa will I see you again?
I asked the skid row angels & the ol’ gypsy wind
They all say my wandering Rosa is on the run again
