Lyrics

Verse 1

Roxanne come around my way

She moves through the smoke of the afternoon

Her laugh cuts clear through the gray

She spins on her heel and she spins too soon

Pre-Chorus

Oh Roxanne

You know I want you when you go

Oh Roxanne

Why you always on the low

Chorus

Roxanne don't walk away

Roxanne won't you stay

Roxanne I'm callin' your name

Roxanne don't walk away

Verse 2

She keeps her secrets in a yellow dress

Her smile is a puzzle I can't arrest

Every time I think I've got her near

She's gone in a blink I'm left with fear

Pre-Chorus

Oh Roxanne

You know I want you when you go

Oh Roxanne

Why you always on the low

Chorus

Roxanne don't walk away

Roxanne won't you stay

Roxanne I'm callin' your name

Roxanne don't walk away

Bridge

I see her by the river bend

The night comes down I'm callin' again

Roxanne Roxanne yeah

Roxanne Roxanne yeah

Chorus

Roxanne don't walk away

Roxanne won't you stay

Roxanne I'm callin' your name

Roxanne don't walk away
