Rosie never was one for turnin' heads She was just always kinda' there She had a few nice features more or less No red ribbons in her hair Since that Jesse's been comin' to the diner Folks are sayin' that she's never looked finer She's got a different air She's taken a shine to him Becoming the woman that she's never been And all of the guys are wishin' they hadn't been so blind She's taken a shine to life Now there's a sparkle in her eye They all missed the gem, a diamond within She's taken a shine Rosie hardly ever missed a bit of work Never took vacation days Home, or the diner, it was all the same to her She didn't know any other way But each afternoon now she starts to come alive 'Cause Jesse's there each day to pick her up at five You ought to hear them say She's taken a shine to him Becoming the woman that she's never been And all of the guys are wishin' they hadn't been so blind She's taken a shine to life Now there's a sparkle in her eye They all missed the gem, a diamond within She's taken a shine Oh, what a little love can do Now that she's found herself She's stronger than she ever knew She's taken a shine to him Becoming the woman that she's never been And all of the guys are wishin' they hadn't been so blind She's taken a shine to life Now there's a sparkle in her eye They all missed the gem, a diamond within She's taken a shine
