Redneck Roses — текст песни (Tracy Byrd)

(Tracy Byrd/Byron Hill)

Not so long ago
On his way home from work
He`d stop by the side of the road
Step out of that old beat up Ford
That he drove
And he`d walk around
Searchin` the ground
For a handful of wildflower blooms
Thinkin` of where he`d be soon
There with her

She called them redneck roses
`Cause that`s what they were
A simple gift of love
From a country boy to his girl
She called them redneck roses
They didn`t cost a dime
But they brought a smile to her face
Every time

Now it`s years down the line
She sits home alone
It`s the usual end of the day
Once again, he`s still workin` late
And never calls

They`ve got a house on a hill
No problems with bills
And a baby that`s on the way
But her heart longs for those yesterdays
And his love

She called them redneck roses
`Cause that`s what they were
A simple gift of love
From a country boy to his girl
She called them redneck roses
They didn`t cost a dime
But they brought a smile to her face
Every time

They could still put a smile on her face
If he only had the time
