Trio Rio

Lyrics

Rosary  -  Mickey Mikesell 
 Her name was Rosary
Just like the Holy Beads
Just like a voice in me howlin’ at the moon
Just like a window shade on a hot and sultry day
Opening and closing according to her mood
 
Chorus:
I hate to say I have to say good-bye now
That’s word I sometimes use too soon
I hate to say I have to say good-bye now
A crazy way to end an afternoon
 
My name was almost gone
Not quite there and on the run
Afraid of all the things I did and the things I did not do
She wore a dress of white on a darkened day with a face so bright
Somehow it improved my sight, blind like love will do
 
Chorus
 
So we lay in sin once again 
In a motel room where the walls close in
It seem I find a wicked smile in damn near everything
But it’s white stripes and it’s tail lights and Jesus Christ ain't it cold tonight
The old highway’s breathing harmony to the songs I love to sing
 
Chorus
