Chorus:
Second hand shoes second hand clothes
They all call her second hand rose
They all think they're pretty smart
But rose don't have a second hand heart
I love a little girl who lives across the way
I go to see her nearly everyday
But when I get the money I'll take her far away
So they can't gather around her and say
Chorus:
They tease her about her clothes and things
It's hard to believe some folks can be so mean
But when I get the money I'll buy her the best
I'll take rose you can have all the rest
Chorus.
