Rose's Turn Lyrics & Tabs by Bernadette Peters
Rose's Turn
guitar chords lyrics
I made you!
And you wanna know why?
You wanna know what I did it for?
'Cause I was born too soon
And I started too late, that's why.
But what I have in me, I could've been better than any of you!
What I got in me...!
What I've been holding down inside of me,
Oh, if I ever let it out,
There wouldn't be signs big enough!
There wouldn't be lights bright neough!
Here she is, boys!
Here she is, world!
Here's Rose!
Curtain up!
Here she is, world!
Here's Rose!
Curtain up!
Light the lights!
Play it, boys!
You either got it or you ain't.
And, boys, I got it!
Ya like it?
Well, I got it!
Some people got it and make it pay.
Some people can't even give it away.
This people's got it
And this people's spreadin' it around!
You either have it
Or you've had it!
Hello, everybody! My name is Rose! What's yours?
How do you like them eggrolls, Mr. Goldstone?
Hold your hats and hallelujah.
Mama's gonna show it to you.
Ready or not, shhh, here comes Mama.
Mama's talkin' loud.
Mama's doin' fine.
Mama's gettin' hot.
Mama's goin' stong.
Mama's movin' on.
Mama's all alone.
Mama doesn't care.
Mama's lettin' loose.
Mama's got the stuff.
Mama's lettin' go.
Ma-- mm.
Mama's got the stuff.
Mama's gotta move.
Mama's gotta go.
Mmm -- ma...
Mama's gotta let go.
Why did I do it?
What did it get me?
Scrapbooks full of me in the background.
Give 'em love and what does it get you?
What does it get you?
One quick look as each of 'em leaves you.
All your life and what does it get you?
Thanks a lot and out with the garbage,
They take bows and you're battin' zero.
I had a dream.
I dreamed it for you, June.
It wasn't for me, Herbie.
And if it wasn't for me
then where would you be,
Miss Gypsy Rose Lee?
Well, someone tell me, when is it my turn?
Don't I get a dream for myself?
Starting now it's gonna be my turn.
Gangway, world, get off of my runway!
Starting now I bat a thousand!
This time, boys, I'm taking the bows and...
Everything's coming up Rose!
Everything's coming up roses!
Everything's coming up roses
This time for me!
For me!
For me!
For me!
For me!
For me!
For me!
