Rosie, I've been drafted
I'm a solider now 'am 'bout to die
For my nation with my brothers
Come dear wave me off
But please don't cry

I will fight 'til I fall and I can't make it up
But my undying soul will fly back home
And kiss you goodnight

Rosie, when I daydream
You will be my one remaining light
As I walk my way through deserts
I will carry you in my mind

I will fight 'til I fall and I can't make it up
But my undying soul will fly back home
And kiss you goodnight

I will fight 'til I fall and I can't make it up
But my undying soul will fly back home
And kiss you goodnight
I will fight 'til I fall and I can't make it up
But my undying soul will fly back home
And kiss you goodnight

Rosie, I will try to wear my judgement
Like it's a shiny crown
Do get married, have his children
I will wait for you on the other side
