Second hand shoes, second hand clothes They all call her second hand rose They all think they're pretty smart But rose don't have a second hand heart
I love a little girl who lives across the way I go to see her nearly every day But when I get the money I'll take her away And they can't gather around her and say
(Second hand shoes, second hand clothes) They all call her second hand rose They all think they're pretty smart But rose don't have a second hand heart
They tease her about her clothes and things It's hard to believe some folks could be so mean But when I get the money I'll buy her the best I'll take a rose you can have all the rest
(Second hand shoes, second hand clothes) They all call her second hand rose They all think they're pretty smart But rose don't have a second hand heart
(Second hand shoes, second hand clothes) They all call her second hand rose They all think they're pretty smart But rose don't have a second hand heart
