Adam Sanders - Burnin’ Roses lyrics
[Adam Sanders - Burnin’ Roses lyrics]
I bought some American beauties
Red double knock outs
Yeah I hit Walmart
Walgreens and Betty's flowers 'til I
Cleaned 'em all out
And then I backed my truck
Up to her front porch
So she could see the bed of baby
I'm sorry's I was there for
She opened the door and said it's a bad time
Wasn't wearin' nothin' but a t-shirt
And it wasn't mine
And now I'm sittin' on a fender
Dippin' long stems into kerosene
Flickin' this Bic and brushin' these
Crimson ashes off my jeans
I ain't drinkin' any whiskey yet or
Lightin' no left hand cigarettes
I'm just out here all night petal smokin'
Burnin' roses
I keep cuttin' my fingers
On these damn thorns
But now there's blood in the dirt
But they say love hurts
So I was warned
Theres a storm cloud rollin' but
My plans won't change
I'll be out here startin' these fires
Even in the pourin' rain
Yeah I'm sittin' on a fender
Dippin' long stems into kerosene
Flickin' this Bic and brushin' these
Crimson ashes off my jeans
I ain't drinkin' any whiskey yet or
Lightin' no left hand cigarettes
I'm just out here all night
Petal smokin', burnin' roses
Oh yeah
I couldn't dump 'em on the side of the
Road or just throw 'em all away
After all that cost me
All my dreams and half of one week's pay
Yeah I'm sittin' on a fender
Dippin' long stems into kerosene
Flickin' this Bic and brushin' these
Crimson ashes off my jeans
I ain't drinkin' any whiskey yet or
Lightin' no left hand cigarettes
I'm just out here all night petal smokin'
Burnin' roses
Yeah I'm burnin' roses, yeah
Aw baby
Yeah I'm gettin' tired of your memory
Don't care if I burn this whole town
Red double knock outs
Yeah I hit Walmart
Walgreens and Betty's flowers 'til I
Cleaned 'em all out
And then I backed my truck
Up to her front porch
So she could see the bed of baby
I'm sorry's I was there for
She opened the door and said it's a bad time
Wasn't wearin' nothin' but a t-shirt
And it wasn't mine
And now I'm sittin' on a fender
Dippin' long stems into kerosene
Flickin' this Bic and brushin' these
Crimson ashes off my jeans
I ain't drinkin' any whiskey yet or
Lightin' no left hand cigarettes
I'm just out here all night petal smokin'
Burnin' roses
I keep cuttin' my fingers
On these damn thorns
But now there's blood in the dirt
But they say love hurts
So I was warned
Theres a storm cloud rollin' but
