Intro

       

Verse 1

Rox-anne... You don't have to put on the red light
Those days are ov-er, you don't have to sell your body to the night
Rox-anne... 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

Pre-Chorus

Rox-anne... You don't have to put on the red light
Rox-anne... You don't have to put on the red light 

Chorus

Rox-anne.... (put on the red light)
Rox-anne.... (put on the red light)
Rox-anne.... (put on the red light)
Rox-anne.... (put on the red light)
Rox-anne.... (put on the red light) Oh! 

Verse 2

I loved you since I knew you
I wouldn't talk down to you
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

Pre-Chorus

Rox-anne... You don't have to put on the red light
Rox-anne... You don't have to put on the red light 

Chorus

Rox-anne.... (put on the red light)
Rox-anne.... (put on the red light)
Rox-anne.... (put on the red light)
Rox-anne.... (put on the red light)
Rox-anne.... (put on the red light)
