Rose Garden lyrics

Artist  : Lynn Anderson 
Song : Rose Garden
 


I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose
garden
Along with the sunshine
There's
gotta be a little rain some time
When you take
you gotta give so live and let live
Or let go
oh-whoa-whoa-whoa
I beg your pardon
I never
promised you a rose garden

I could promise
you things like big diamond rings
But you
don't find roses growin' on stalks of
clover
So you better think it over
Well if
sweet-talkin' you could make it come true
I
would give you the world right now on a silver
platter
But what would it matter
So smile
for a while and let's be jolly
Love shouldn't
be so melancholy
Come along and share the good
times while we can

I beg your pardon
I
never promised you a rose garden
Along with
the sunshine
There's gotta be a little rain
some time



I beg your pardon
I never
promised you a rose garden

I could sing
you a tune and promise you the moon
But if
that's what it takes to hold you
I'd just as
soon let you go
But there's one thing I want
you to know
You better look before you leap,
still waters run deep
And there won't always
be someone there to pull you out
And you know
what I'm talkin' about
So smile for a while
and let's be jolly
Love shouldn't be so
melancholy
Come along and share the good times
while we can

I beg your pardon
I never
promised you a rose garden
FADE
Along with
the sunshine
There's gotta be a little rain
some time
