Streetwalkers - Roxianna lyrics

Chapman-Whitney Well, Roxianna, oh, Roxianna, you let your face grow long You've got too much make-up on I said: 'What's been goin' on' I still see the times that your eyes would shine. When you answered up the door But it ain't there no more Oh, the years have took their score You ain't the foxy Roxianna I knew before. I seen the day that I'd call, I say: 'Is Roxianna free?' Madame would answer sweet: 'Just call back after three' Then you'd take me down in your Sunday gown On the steamboat river ride. Parasole open wide There'd be laughter in your eyes You were foxy, foxy Roxianna, said you were the pride Oh, you were the pride. Should have kept my dreams locked up it seems Stayed away from here And they'd still be just as clear As I've nursed them through the years. Remember when city gents would pitch their tents Just to wait in line But I get back and what I find After all this time, you ain't the foxy Roxianna I left behind. I left behind.
