Gerald Potts - Rosie

Rosie went down to the river, down to the river to pray
But God can answer her prayers when she's looking away
I wish that I could help her, get her to understand
That you can't be praying to God like you're praying to man, like you're praying to man
Talk to me Rosie, help me understand why you feel so hurt and what you have planned
How do you expect to save this man when you can't save yourself
Cause I can't help you again
I heard your mother talking, saying she fears for you
Well she don't want that hard head breaking your fragile heart
So lock it up in a steel cage and throw that key out the door
Cause you sure won't be needing it anymore
No, you won't need it anymore
Talk to me Rosie, help me understand why you feel so hurt and what you have planned
How do you expect to save this man when you can't save yourself
Cause I can't help you again
Oh Rosie, I can see you crying now
I can hear him pushing you around
You're drowning in the river rushing down
Why can't you make these decisions for yourself
