[00:06.42]Big plans are being made for my sisters wedding day.
[00:40.83]We’ll have a ball at the Sons of Roma Hall.
[00:44.88]Family, friends come one and all.
[00:48.89]First the best man makes a toast to Rocky and my sister Rose,
[00:56.20]”A life of years free of tears. Bottoms up and lots of luck!”
[01:04.33]’
[01:06.56]Polka, tango everyone, cha-cha, mambo Rose and Rock alone.
[01:12.26]Frankie Rizzo and his Combo play on.
[01:16.49]Single girls all hear the call from a crowd at the back wall
[01:27.72]and when the bouquet flies each one tries to be the best catch and next years bride.
[01:35.68]Uncle Sam and Uncle Joe take their places in the row.
[01:43.48]They’re standing by side to side for dollar dances with the bride.
[01:51.76]Polka, tango everyone, cha-cha, mambo, Rose and Rock alone.
[01:59.73]”He’s a banker, she’ll be well off now.”
[02:03.63]Sister Rose take your mother’s place.
[02:07.34]Trade your home and your maiden name.
[02:11.47]For a list of vows and a veil of lace made a wife of you today.
[02:19.85]Now they cut the five tier cake, “That Colucci, he can bake.”
[03:14.79]A frosted tower of sugar and flour for the couple of the hour.
[03:22.88]Polka, tango everyone, cha-cha, mambo Rose and Rock alone.
[03:30.73]She was born to wear that gown.
[03:34.56]Sister Rose take your mother’s place.
[03:38.20]Trade your home and your maiden name.
[03:42.17]For a list of vows and a veil of lace made a wife of you today,
[03:50.78]but you’re my sister Rose the same.
