## Lyrics
[verse]
I was cruising down the highway in my old machine
Spotted my baby driving off in a Cadillac gleam
Chased her through the city, chased her past the hill
Pushed my engine harder just to catch her still

[chorus]
Rosalene, Rosalene, why'd you run away
Rosalene, Rosalene, come on back and stay
I ain't never gonna let another dollar catch my eye
Just wanna love you till the day I die

[verse]
Rain came pouring down upon my windshield glass
Couldn't see the road but I refused to pass
Radio was blaring some old rock and roll tune
Chasing down my baby underneath the moon

[chorus]
Rosalene, Rosalene, why'd you run away
Rosalene, Rosalene, come on back and stay
I ain't never gonna let another dollar catch my eye
Just wanna love you till the day I die

[bridge]
Finally caught her at the light downtown
Rolled the window, gave a great big smile and a frown
Said "baby, why you always gotta run"
She just laughed and said "the chase is half the fun"

[chorus]
Rosalene, Rosalene, why'd you run away
Rosalene, Rosalene, come on back and stay
I ain't never gonna let another dollar catch my eye
Just wanna love you till the day I die
