Chorus: Our dear Rosy just turned sixty She can pass for barely fifty On top of that she’s really nifty Dear Rosy we love you She’s been the Grannies’ song leader for many long years Patient with us when our voices bring some folks to tears Back in tune and to the right- no left- words she always steers Dear Rosy we love you She’s been teaching non-violence for many decades now She wants to turn all swords into instruments that plow Even if she thinks it she never would go pow Dear Rosy we love you Some years ago decided that she’d get really fit To hike and ski and bike and walk and not on her butt sit Her muscles and her shape show that from this she did not flit Dear Rosy we love you She uses all her gifts in many ways we realize She’s sweet and tough and kind and smart, creative and she’s wise If you think our Rosy’s just one way watch out for a surprise Dear Rosy we love you Chorus Our dear Rosy just turned sixty She can pass for barely fifty On top of that she’s nifty Dear Rosy we love you
