My Sister Rose
Big big plans are being madeFor my sister's wedding dayWe'll have a ballAt the Sons of Roma HallFamily, friends, come one and all
First the best men make a toastTo Rocky and my sister Rose"A life of yearsFree of tearsBottoms up and lots of luck!"
Polka, tango everyoneCha-cha, mambo Rose and Rock aloneFrankie Rizzo and his combo play on
Single girls all hear the callForm a crowd at the back wallAnd when the bouquet fliesEach one triesTo be the best catch and next year's bride
Uncle Sam and Uncle JoeTake their places in a rowThey're standing bySide to sideFor dollar dances with the bride
Polka, tango everyoneCha-cha, mambo, Rose and Rock alone"He's a banker, she'll be well off now"
Sister Rose, take your mother's placeTrade your home and your maiden nameFor a list of vows and a veil of laceMade a wife of you today.
Now they cut the five-tier cake"That Colucci, he can bake"A frosted towerOf sugar and flourFor the couple of the hour
Polka, tango everyoneCha-cha, mambo Rose and Rock aloneShe was born to wear that gown
Sister Rose, take your mother's placeTrade your home and your maiden nameFor a list of vows and a veil of laceMade a wife of you today
But you're my sister Rose the same
