Roses By the Dozen

[Verse 1]
You thought you'd get the last word
But I got there first
You don't have much to say now, now, now, now
I took that hurt
Couldn't get any worse
You said I'd never live this down, down, down

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Now there's roses out by the old oak tree
The prettiest things that you never did see

[Chorus]
Oh honey, got the petals, they're growin'
Got thorns on the vine and the summer wind blowin'
People walkin by, they're comin' and they're goin'
And they're pickin' one for they're lovin'
And you're lyin' down there, pushin' up roses by the dozen

[Verse 2]
The thing about forgiveness:
It ain't comin' from my lips
But you know silence is made of gold, gold, gold, gold
You were relentless
And dust don't sink ships
At least that's what I been told, told, told

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now there's roses out by the old oak tree
Right there where the stone should be

[Chorus]
Oh honey, got the petals, they're growin'
Got thorns on the vine and the summer wind blowin'
People walkin by, they're comin' and they're goin'
And they're pickin' one for they're lovin'
And you're lyin' down there, pushin' up roses by the dozen
Oh, pushin' up roses by the dozen

[Bridge]
Baby, did you learn your lesson?
All it would'a taken was a little confessin'

[Chorus]
Oh honey, got the petals, they're growin'
Got thorns on the vine and the summer wind blowin'
People walkin by, they're comin' and they're goin'
And they're pickin' one for they're lovin'
And you're lyin' down there
Yeah you're lyin' there
Yeah you're lyin' down there
Yeah you're lyin' there, pushin' up roses by the dozen
Pushin' up roses by the dozen
