Rosie never was one for turnin heads

She was just always kinda there

She had a few nice features more or less

No red ribbons in her hair

Since that Jesse's been comin' to the diner

Folks are sayin that she's never looked finer

She's got a different air



(Chorus)

She's taken a shine to him

Becomin the woman that she's never been

And all of the guys are wishin they hadn't been so blind

She's taken a shine to life

Now there's a sparkle in her eye

They all missed a gem, the diamond within

She's taken a shine



Rosie hardly ever missed a bit of work

Never took vacation days

Home or the diner it was all the same to her

She didn't know any other way

But each afternoon now she starts to come alive

Cause Jesse's there each day to pick her up at five

You oughta hear them say



(Repeat Chorus)



Oh what a little love can do

Now that she's found herself

She's stronger than she ever knew



(Repeat Chorus)



She's taken a shiiiiiiiiiine

She's taken a shiiiiiiiiiine
