Rosie Bokay Chords & Lyrics - George Jones

[E] [A] [E] [A]

[E]Rosie's the [B]barmate at [A]Bret Wilson's [E]Tavern
That's where I'll[B] be all night [E]long
She pours me my [B]label and [A]sits at my [E]table
And [F#]hums me a honky tonk [B7]song.

[E]Rosie don't [B]go to the [A]PTA [E]meetings
And the preacher has [B]not seen her [E]face
But the hypocrites naggin' don't keep me fro[A]m draggin'
On [E]my darlin' [B]Rosie Bo[E]kay.

[CHORUS]
[E]I [B]need [A]Rosie Bo[E]kay
I need somebody to [F#]love all my troubles a[B7]way
[E]I [B]need [A]Rosie Bo[E]kay
A [E]hound needs to holler, a [A]bum needs a dollar
And [E]I need [B]Rosie Bo[E]kay.

Honky tonk life ain't a life to be proud of
But it's better than bein' alone
Everyone tells me that Rosie ain't pretty
But I've got a mind of my own.

If not for the long nights that I spent with Rosie
My days would be cloudy and grey
If I was the mayor then do me a favor
And bring in more Rosie Bokay.

[CHORUS
