Story Behind The Song
while in Branson we received a dog from a family that had 6 dogs and 2 cats. They found her on the street and only had her for 2 weeks. They named her Rita, and she would jump in our arms when my wife and I come home.

Lyrics
RITA (WORDS AND MUSIC BY TOM ZOVAR2003 ASCAP 1657084)
CHORUS:
OH RITA, RITA
YOU JUMP INTO MY ARMS
WHEN I COME THROUGH THE DOOR
OH RITA, RITA
YOU ARE THE ONE THAT I ADORE
VERSE 1:
WHEN I FOUND YOU, YOU WERE WALKING
THOSE LONELY STREETS, DOWN IN BRANSON MISSOURI
I TOOK YOU HOME WHAT A LONG DRIVE, YOU DIDN?T EAT
ALL THE WAY BACK TO MILWAUKEE
CHORUS
VERSE 2:
YOU ARE MY ROADSIDE RITA, ROAMING THE STREETS
LIVING ALONE AND ON THE RUN
AS WE DROVE THAT LONG DRIVE AND YOU SAT ON MY LAP
WITH YOUR HEAD ON MY SHOULDERS
OH RITA, RITA
YOU JUMP INTO MY ARMS
WHEN I COME THROUGH THE DOOR
OH RITA, RITA
YOU ARE , ONE BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL,BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL??DOG.
