Wild Rose

Struggling with Wild Rose? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!
A farmer goes to work 'til he's tired Stops to doze off in the hay Sleeps on site And dreams through the night 'Til he wakes up to work again There's one horse town cops And corner tattoos Old hobos wave from box cars Now dontcha get out of that snowstorm Come in where it's warm Sit down and dry your hide Shadows cast on the mountain tops As the sun sets beyond the trees Wilted wildflowers bend into themselves As the ground beneath starts to freeze There's muleys in the coulees Old hawks on a fence post The merry-go-round grazes on crude Come on down Where the sky paints the ground And the wind blows across the plains I thought about old Wild Rose And the gal I left behind When I stopped in to a diner for a bite I told the waitress she's pretty That don't mean a thing I'm still sleepin' by the fire tonight My mind fades off to nowhere As the crackle and smoke cloud the moon I tip my hat And nod off the somewhere While the farmer is nodding off too
