Her voice
Was the first I knew
She always
Liked popular tunes
You know
She's from Kentucky too
My mother sings
Sounds like to me
Rosemary Clooney

Can't miss
The start of the race
I wanna hear
The song they play
I think of her
On Derby Day
My mother sings
Sounds like to me
Rosemary Clooney

Smooth as silk
Rich and deep
With just a hint
Of Whiskey

Her voice
Was the first I knew
She really could play
Those St. Louis Blues
And you'd know
If you heard her croon
My mother sings
Or could it be
Rosemary sounds
Like my mother Sue
