ROSIE THE RIVETER
by Redd Evans and John Jacob Loeb, ©1942.
THE FOUR SERGEANTS
While other girls attend their fav'rite cocktail bar
Sippin' dry martinis, munchin' caviar
There's a girl who's really puttin' them to shame
Rosie - is her name
All the day long, whether rain or shine
She's a part of the assembly Line
She's makin' history, workin' for victory
Rosie! [*] The Riveter
Keeps a sharp look out for Sabotage
Sitting up there on the fusilage
Nothin' a 'frail' can do
More than a male can do
Rosie! - [*] The Riveter
Rosie's got a boyfriend, Charlie
Charlie, he's a Marine
Rosie is protecting Charlie
Workin' overtime on the riveting machine
When they gave her a production 'E'
She was as proud as a girl could be
There's something true about
Red, White and Blue about
Rosie - [*] The Riveter
Everyone stops to admire the scene
Rosie at work on the B-19
She's never twittery, nervous or jittery
Rosie! Rosie - [#] The Riveter
What if she's smeared full of oil and grease
Doing her bit for the old Lend-Lease
She keeps the gang around
They love to hang around
Rosie! Rosie - [#] The Riveter
Rosie buys a lot of war bonds
That girl really has sense
And wishes she could purchase more bonds
Puttin' all the cash into National Defense
Senator Jones, who is in the know
Shouted these words on the radio
"Berlin will hear about
And London will cheer about!"
Rosie! Rosie! Rosie - [#] The Riveter
[*] Riveter sound
[#] Drum Beat
