《California Rose》歌词

[00:00:00] California Rose - Laura Cantrell

[00:00:08] Your mama wasn't one to

[00:00:09] Mess around with

[00:00:12] Had a fleet of cars

[00:00:13] And all those flashy clothes

[00:00:17] Taught you the discipline of

[00:00:19] Doing what she told

[00:00:21] Kept her fist around

[00:00:22] The money tightly closed

[00:00:26] She had all you kids to think of

[00:00:30] One more precious than

[00:00:32] The rest big brothers running wild

[00:00:37] You learned to kick your heels in style

[00:00:40] Did you have it worst or have it best

[00:00:44] When you grew like a California Rose

[00:00:48] The color of your clothes

[00:00:49] Blooming even when

[00:00:51] The earth was cracked and dry

[00:00:53] You sang easy and so sweet

[00:00:57] Dust under your feet

[00:00:59] Opened your heart as natural as can be

[00:01:03] Mama never suffered any in-laws

[00:01:08] Ran them all away eventually

[00:01:13] Had a plan to keep you near

[00:01:16] And a soldier boy who took her deal

[00:01:18] To city hall you went teenage bride to be

[00:01:23] Next came along the baby carriage

[00:01:27] Blessed event came unforeseen

[00:01:31] No child in mamas eyes

[00:01:34] Circumstance easy to hide

[00:01:36] Where did you put your loyalty

[00:01:40] When you cry like a California Rose

[00:01:44] Scarlet Crimson Robes

[00:01:45] Fading even as you reached to the sky

[00:01:49] You sang heavy and so sweet

[00:01:53] Your heart it barely beat

[00:01:55] From the hurting it would

[00:01:57] Carry from now on

[00:02:00] No one would ever say

[00:02:02] You'd hesitate to take the blame

[00:02:08] I'm still wondering today

[00:02:12] Where is your name in that hall of fame

[00:02:17] When you grew like a California Rose

[00:02:21] The color of your clothes

[00:02:23] Blooming even when

[00:02:24] The earth was cracked and dry

[00:02:27] You sang easy and so sweet

[00:02:30] Dust under your feet

[00:02:32] Opened your heart

[00:02:33] As natural as can be
