Lyrics

WILD ROSES

SOME YEARS AGO IN A SUMMERNIGHT
I DROVE MY CAR AND THE RADIO PLAYED SONGS OF YESTERDAY
I WAS LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO STAY

I STOPPED MY CAR IN FRONT OF A PUB
I ENTERED THE ROOM AND MY THOUGHTS WERE ALWAYS OF
YESTERDAY
I KNEW I NEED A PLACE TO STAY

DO YOU REALLY THINK SO ? DON?T YOU REALLY WANNA GO ?

I HAD SOME DRINKS AND I TALKED TO THOSE VILLAGERS
WHO NEVER THINK ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE THAN THEIR VALLEY
WHILE I WAS LOOKIN? FOR ANOTHER BELLY

WILD ROSES - I ALWAYS TRIED TO CATCH SOME BLOOM OF YOU
WILD ROSES - BUT I KNOW YOU ARE FADING LIKE I DO

I SAW THOSE GIRLS YOUNG AND PRETTY
THEY WERE IN LOVE AND I STROKED THEIR KITTIES
I HAD THOSE BODIES BUT NOW THEY ARE DUST

I ALWAYS LOOKED FOR SOME PRETTY FACES, FOR BODIES AND
BELLIES, FOR SWEET SMELLS AND TASTES

I THOUGHT THESE THINGS COULD HOLD ME YOUNG
YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT I HAVE DONE
BUT NOW I HAVE TO USE MY SPANISH GUN

WILD ROSES - I ALWAYS TRIED TO CATCH SOME BLOOM OF YOU
WILD ROSES - BUT I KNOW YOU ARE FADING LIKE I DO

WILD ROSES - I ALWAYS TRIED TO CATCH SOME BLOOM OF YOU
WILD ROSES - BUT I KNOW YOU ARE FADING LIKE I DO
