There's a young lady called rosie;

She is my west country girl.

I promised her that no matter

Where i should go in the world,

I'd send a postcard to her...



I'll send a postcard from paris,

Paraguay, prague and peru

I'd even send one from liverpool

If rosie wanted me to...

If baghdad or beirut won't do...



Most of the time i remember,

But once in a while i forget.

If you see fit to forgive me,

I'll always be in your debt...

And i'll make you proud of me yet...
