Ma Blushin’ Rosie lyrics, sung by Al Jolson in The Jolson Story

There’s a little bunch of sweetness,
That I long to call my bride.
And believe me, I’m not happy,
Lest my baby’s by my side.
Her baptismal name was Rosie,
But she put’s the rose to shame.
And almost every night,
you’ll hear me call her name.
