gardener for her roses - nat stuckey lyrics

i was sleeping on the rolled up copy of the early morning maryland news
i didn’t have a dime for coffee or to call me up someone to talk me to
and then i read a wanted ad that said i need the gardener right away
so i rushed down the five or nine the little pink house was mighty fine
i ran all the way
i remember knocking twice and waiting for the moment till she came
and then i saw a rose in her the kind of rose that you can throw in summer rain
she smiled that little smile she has and asked me if i could start right away
and that was ten short years ago
neither of us could have known that i’d come to stay
now i’m the gardener for her roses i love and care for her tender roses
now i’m the gardener for her roses that bloom today out where our children play
[ choir ]
i can still remember when a park bench was the only home i had
and it’s much better being here she can call me dear and children call me dad
she smiles that little smile because i just repair the scream door that was bad
and all around i see white roses looking back at me oh how i could be sad
yes i’m the gardener for her roses i fix the scream door now it closes
and opens quite like right red roses that bloom today out where our children play
