Come out, Rosie,
in the bright moonlight,
Come out Rosie,
for tonight's the night,
My sweet aroon
Come out and spoon.
Night birds cooing in the trees above,
Wait to greet you with their songs of love.
My Rosie oh, I love you so,
Oh Rosie, dear, and did you hear
the news that's going round.

Rosie, my Rosie,
My Irish Rosie,
Come out, love, and spoon.
Maytime is playtime
come have a gay time,
Under the young May moon.
My love is true dear
I love but you dear
Nobody else will do
Ev'ry star up in the sky so bright,
seems to tell me
that your heart's all right,
My charming Irish Rosie.

Rosie, my Rosie,
My Irish Rosie,
Come out, love, and spoon.
Maytime is playtime
come have a gay time,
Under the young May moon.
My love is true dear
I love but you dear
Nobody else will do
Ev'ry star up in the sky so bright,
seems to tell me
that your heart's all right,
My charming Irish Rosie.

Come out, Rosie,
on the balcony,
Come out, Rosie,
take a peep at me,
My pretty dear,
Look, love, who's here.
What I want to know, well,
you can guess,
Come out, Rosie, dear
and just say yes.
My sweet Colleen,
My Irish Queen,
Oh Rosie, dear, and did you hear
I've bought the wedding ring.

Rosie, my Rosie,
My Irish Rosie,
Come out, love, and spoon.
Maytime is playtime
come have a gay time,
Under the young May moon.
My love is true dear
I love but you dear
Nobody else will do
Ev'ry star up in the sky so bright,
seems to tell me
that your heart's all right,
My charming Irish Rosie.

Rosie, my Rosie,
My Irish Rosie,
Come out, love, and spoon.
Maytime is playtime
come have a gay time,
Under the young May moon.
My love is true dear
I love but you dear
Nobody else will do
Ev'ry star up in the sky so bright,
seems to tell me
that your heart's all right,
My charming Irish Rosie.
