10000 Maniacs - My Sister Rose (Live)

Big plans are being made for my sister's wedding day
We'll have a ball at the Sons of Roma Hall
Family, friends come one and all
First the best man makes a toast to Rocky and my sister Rose
A life of years free of tears Bottoms up and lots of luck
'
Polka, tango everyone, cha cha, mambo Rose and Rock alone
Frankie Rizzo and his Combo play on

Single girls all hear the call from a crowd at the back wall
and when the bouquet flies each one tries to be the best catch and next years bride
Uncle Sam and Uncle Joe take their places in the row
They're standing by side to side for dollar dances with the bride

Polka, tango everyone, cha cha, mambo, Rose and Rock alone
He's a banker, she'll be well off now

Sister Rose take your mother's place
Trade your home and your maiden name
For a list of vows and a veil of lace made a wife of you today

Now they cut the five tier cake, That Colucci, he can bake
A frosted tower of sugar and flour for the couple of the hour

Polka, tango everyone, cha cha, mambo Rose and Rock alone
She was born to wear that gown

Sister Rose take your mother's place
Trade your home and your maiden name
For a list of vows and a veil of lace made a wife of you today
but you're my sister Rose the same
