Thoughts About Roxanne - John Mayall

I call her on the telephone

But she is hardly ever home

I know she’s gotten a lovin' man

And so I see her when I can

Roxanne will always be my friend

And that’s the way I’ll keep her love

I think she’s pretty as a rose

I take her out and buy her clothes

I’d like to take her home with me

But I must wait until she’s free

Roxanne will always be my friend

And that’s the way I’ll keep her love

I love to touch her when we walk

I love to listen to her talk

The way I feel I can’t explain

But I will wait for her again

Roxanne will always be my friend

And that’s the way I’ll keep her love
