作曲 : Traditional/S.S. Steele Away from Mississippi's vale, With my ol' hat there for a sail, I crossed upon a cotton bale To Rose of Alabamy. I landed on the far sand bank, I sat upon the hollow plank, And there I made the banjo twank For Rose of Alabamy. Oh brown Rosie, Rose of Alabamy! A sweet tobacco posey Is my Rose of Alabamy. I said "Sit down just where you please." She cross my lap and took her ease. "It's good to go upon the knees," Said Rose of Alabamy. The river rose; the cricket sang, The lightnin' bug did flash his wang; Then like a rope my arms I flang, 'Round Rose of Alabamy. Oh brown Rosie, Rose of Alabamy! A sweet tobacco posey Is my Rose of Alabamy. I hugged so long I cannot tell. My Rosie seemed to like it well. My banjo in the river fell. Oh, Rose of Alabamy. Like alligator after prey, I jump in, but it float away, And all the while it seem to say, "Oh, Rose of Alabamy." Oh brown Rosie, Rose of Alabamy! A sweet tobacco posey Is my Rose of Alabamy. Now every night come rain or shower, I hunt that banjo for an hour; And see my sweet tobacco flower, Oh, Rose of Alabamy. Oh brown Rosie, She's Rose of Alabamy! A sweet tobacco posey Is my Rose of Alabamy. Oh brown Rosie, She's Rose of Alabamy! A sweet tobacco posey Is my Rose of Alabamy.
