FOUR ROSES

I'm leavin' this town, baby

the time has come for me to be on my way

please, girl, now don't say nothin'

'cuz there's nothin' you can do to make me stay

I sure won't be comin' back here, mama

it sure ain't worth my while to mention

that my pride won't let me stay

and I'm sure you don't have no sweet intentions

to lay four roses down some sweet day

oh, I sure won't be comin' back here, mama

uhh

oh, look out

love, it sure ain't the reason

child, I'm feelin' so torn down

'cuz lovin' with a wild heart

it's always the season to run around

but if it's up to me

lord, if it were up to me

if it was all just up to me?

I'd take those four roses off of your crown

uhh

yeah, just keep on goin'

ooh, yeah

I sure can't wait now, mama

ooh-ooh, lord, 'til I'm dead and gone

'cuz my little girl, she's sure got somethin'

ooh-ooh, oh, that I'd like to own

you know what I'm talkin' about

I sure won't be comin' back here, mama
