I ain't got no roses everyone has roses but me
We had a quarrel you called it a day
Leaving me and the roses to wither away
I wish I could send you a pretty red rose
With me heart and my love dear all aglow
I ain't go no roses
Everyone has roses but me
I ain't got no roses everyone has roses but me
I wrote you a letter and tried to atone
They were returned saying address unknown
I look at your picture that I still adore
And remember the roses that you once wore
Now I ain't got no roses
Everyone has roses but me
