city of roses - charley crockett lyrics
[verse 1]
we were in louisiana
i remember it well
cause my uncle was gamblin’
in a shreveport hotel
later that evenin’
we were fortworth*bound
i saw the pretty red flowers
as he passed through a town
well, we pulled on over
to get some fresh night air
and the sweet smell of roses
lingered everywhere
there in the moonlight
on a brick*line street
stood a pretty, young woman
she gave a flower to me
[chorus]
there’s a city of roses
way back in the pines
i don’t know if you know it
but it ain’t hard to find
if you’re comin’ from dallas
you just a*keep rollin’ east
till the city of roses
is all that you see
see charley crockett live
get tickets as low as $26
[verse 2]
maybe you’ve seen it
in a place that you go
on a downtown corner
somebody sellin’ a rose
well, i bet you a dollar
i know where it’s from
a little town in east texas
you’d better get you one
[chorus]
there’s a city of roses
way back in the pines
i don’t know if you know it
but it ain’t hard to find
if you’re comin’ from dallas
you just a*keep rollin’ east
till the city of roses
is all that you see
