BABY ROSE
written and performed by Jennifer Prince
Be my Frankie Darlin’
And I’ll be your Baby Rose
You coulda had any one of them girls
But I’m the one you choose
I saw you in the school yard
When you were 12-years-old
I called you Frankie Darlin’
And you called me Baby Rose
The sun came up this mornin’
Right up over the hill
I was sittin’ there watchin’
Proppedon the windowsill
Thinkin’ about the night time
When the moon hangs down low
I want my Frankie Darlin’
To hold his baby Rose
Baby Rose in the springtime
Kissed by morning dew
Baby Rose in the summer
Fragrant in full bloom
Baby rose lays down softly
When red leaves start to fall
Baby Rose in the summer
Fragrant in full bloom
Baby Rose lays down softly
When red leaves start to fall
Baby Rose here comes winter
I’ll see you through it all.
If you go out to sea, dear
As young men want to do
If you try the big city
And it takes a shine to you
Remember the one who’s loved you
Since you were 12-years-old
You’re Frankie Darlin’
And I’m your Baby Rose.
Baby Rose in the springtime
Kissed by morning dew
Baby Rose in the summer
Fragrant in full bloom
Baby Rose lays down softly
When red leaves to fall
Baby Rose here comes winter
I’ll see you through it all.
Baby Rose, you come here to me
I’ll love you through it all.
