Like a Rose

歌詞

I was only thirteen when Daddy died Mama started drinkin', and my brother just quit tryin' I'm still bouncin' back, Heaven only knows How I came out like a rose Ran off with what's-his-name when I turned eighteen He got me out of North Dakota, but it did not change a thing I left it in the yard, all covered up with snow And I came out like a rose Sittin' in this diner with a coffee in my hand Waitin' on a bus to some promised land I got a one way ticket as far as it goes And I came out like a rose So I'm headed south to anywhere that ain't so damn cold Where I can warm my heart and shake the chill from my bones It took a while to get here; it's been a long, hard road And I came out like a rose Sittin' in this diner with a coffee in my hand Waitin' on a bus to some promised land Well, I got a one way ticket as far as it goes And I came out like a rose It took a while to get here; it's been a long, hard road And I came out like a rose
