Bed of Roses - The Statler Brothers |
| [00:05.32] |
She was called a scarlet woman by the people |
| [00:09.50] |
Who would go to church but left me in the street |
| [00:13.98] |
With no parents of my own I never had a home |
| [00:18.96] |
And an eighteen year old boy has got to eat |
| [00:23.38] |
She found me outside one Sunday morning |
| [00:28.01] |
Begging money from a man I didn't know |
| [00:32.77] |
She took me in and wiped away my childhood |
| [00:37.32] |
A woman of the streets this lady Rose |
| [00:42.29] |
This bed of Rose's that I lay on |
| [00:46.81] |
Where I was taught to be a man |
| [00:51.39] |
This bed of Rose's where I'm livin' |
| [00:55.93] |
Is the only kind of life I understand |
| [01:05.65] |
She was a handsome woman just thirty-five |
| [01:10.11] |
Who was spoken to in town by very few |
| [01:14.73] |
She managed a late evening business |
| [01:19.44] |
Like most of the town wished they could do |
| [01:23.91] |
And I learned all the things that a man should know |
| [01:28.58] |
From a woman not approved of I suppose |
| [01:33.23] |
But she died knowing that I really loved her |
| [01:37.63] |
Off life's bramble bush I picked a rose |
| [01:42.82] |
This bed of Rose's that I lay on |
| [01:47.28] |
Where I was taught to be a man |
| [01:51.82] |
This bed of Rose's where I'm livin' |
| [01:56.23] |
Is the only kind of life I understand |
| [02:01.12] |
This bed of Rose's that I lay on |
| [02:05.52] |
Where I was taught to be a man |
| [02:10.33] |
This bed of Rose's where I'm livin' |
| [02:14.66] |
Is the only kind of life I understand |
