Sting - Roxanne

[Only admins are allowed to see this link]

"Roxanne" is a hit song by the rock band The Police, first released in 1978 as a single and on their album Outlandos d'Amour. It was written from the point-of-view of a man who falls in love with a prostitute. Police lead singer Sting wrote the song, inspired by the prostitutes he saw near the band's seedy hotel while in Paris, France in October 1977 to perform at the Nashville Club. The title of the song comes from the name of the character in the play Cyrano de Bergerac, an old poster of which was hanging in the hotel foyer.

Sting - Roxanne

Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the night

Roxanne, you don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets for money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right

Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light

I loved you since I knew ya
I wouldn't talk down to ya
I have to tell you just how I feel
I won't share you with another boy

You know my mind is made up
So put away your make-up
Told you once I won't tell you again, "It's a bad way"

Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light

{But she did anyway}

Loved you since I knew ya
I wouldn't talk down to ya
Don't you want someone tellin' you again?
I won't share you with another boy

You know my mind is made up
So put away your make-up
Told you once I won't tell you again, it's a bad way

Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne, you don't have to wear that dress tonight
Roxanne
