Texas Tornados Laredo Rose Lyrics

Laredo rose, your garden has a scent of cheap perfume.
The sun is a stranger to you, hows a rose suppose to
bloom
Laredo rose, a rosary hangs from your bed post.
A man you just met gets up, stumbles, puttin' on his
clothes.

As he walks away, you watch candle light play, on a
photograph.
A husband and a son and a daughter,
You bought her a dress today, to send to Monterrey.

Laredo rose, your garden has a scent of cheap perfume.
The sun is a stranger to you, hows a rose suppose to
bloom
Solo

Couple bills on the dresser, father confessor,
Knows the wages of sin.
Many times they've been payin', as sure as night, follows day,
they'll be paying again, till heaven knows when.

And heaven knows, our lady looks down from adobe walls
uneven footsteps grow fainter, as they echoed down
the hall

Laredo rose, your garden has a scent of of cheap perfume.
The sun is a stranger to you, hows a rose suppose to
bloom
The sun is a stranger to you, hows a rose suppose to
boom
