[G]Big big plans are [D]bei[C]ng [G]made
[G]for my sister's we[D]ddi[C]ng [G]day
[D]We'll have a [G]ball
[D]at the Sons of [C]Roma hall
[C]Family, [D]friends [C]come [D]one and [G]all
first the best man makes a toast
to rocky and my sister rose
"a life of years,
free of tears
Bottoms up and lots of luck!"
Polka tango, everyone
cha cha mambo rose and rock alone
frankie rizzo and his combo play on
single girls all hear the call
form a crowd at the back wall
and when the boquet flies
each one tries
to be the best catch and next years prize
Uncle sam and Uncle joe
take their places in a row
they're standing by
side to side
while dollar dances with the bride
chorus
He's a banker she'll be well off now
sister rose, take your mother's place
trade your home and your maiden name
for a list of vows
and a veil of lace
made a wife of you today
Now they cut the five tier cake
"that Colucci, he can bake"
a frosted tower of suchar and flour
for the couple of the hour
chorus
she was born to wear that gown
sister rose, take your mother's place
trade your home and your maiden name
for a list of vows
and a veil of lace
made a wife of you today
but you're my sister Rose the same.
