Rosemary Lyrics

I met a Lady named Rosemary

In a town called Newbury

She had a small portable radio

That she carried round with her

I met her on the first day

While I was busking on the streets

She asked if I believed in angels

No-ones ever asked me that before

It's not strange to have a conversation

It's not bad to be honest about yourself

I thought she took to many drugs

But what does it matter to me

I could help her if she does

But she might not need the help

I gave Rosemary five pounds

From my guitar case

And listened to her speak about her life

Her story had it all

From the devils bible of Jesus Christ

But it's not strange to have a conversation

And it's not bad to be honest about yourself

She told me she had a Man overseas

That she was going to travel

To go and see him

I kept running into her throughout my stay

And while I was in the U.K

I bought her coffee from Starbucks

It's not strange to have a conversation

And it's not bad to be honest about yourself

Oh I met a Lady named Rosemary

In a town called Newbury

She had a small portable radio

That she carried round with her
