(Mike Snow)
George Fame & Alan Price - 1971
Sunshine - 1971 (German Lyrics: Gunter Loose)
Jørgen Ryg & Otto Brandenburg - 1971 (Danish Lyrics: Robert Arnold)
ALAN PRICE:
Well my little girl is a sweet little girl
She does things make your eyebrows curl
Let her loose on a Friday night
You know it's gonna end in a fight
Rosetta drinks her whiskey neat
She gets in a fight and she might get beat
So I go round on the Saturday night
And ask her if she feels allright
BOTH:
Rosetta are you better
Are you well, well, well
Rosetta are you better
Are you well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well, well, well
GEORGIE FAME:
When Friday comes, she's fine again
So we go to a club where we got friends
Knocked on the door but we couldn't get in
'Cause the boss don't want no fuss
So we went up town and we drank around
Rosie ended on the ground
I took her home and I put her to bed
And you can guess what I said
BOTH:
Rosetta are you better
Are you well, well, well
Rosetta are you better
Are you well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well, well, well
(Instrumental Break)
BOTH:
Rosetta are you better
Are you well, well, well
Rosetta are you better
Are you well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well my little girl is a sweet little girl
She does things makes your eyebrows curl
Let her loose on a Friday night
You know it's gonna end in a fight
Rosetta are you better
Are you well, well, well
Rosetta are you better
Are you well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well, well, well
Well, well, well, You know it's alright
Well, well, well, You know what I mean
Well, well, well, Ah, take it easy, baby
Well, well, well, You know what I mean
Well. well ........... FADE
