Bed of Roses
she was called a scarlet woman by the people
who would goto church but left me in the streets
with no parents of my own, i never had a home
but an eighteen year old boy has got to eat
she found me outside one sunday morning
begging money from a man i did't know
she took me in and wiped away my childhood
a woman of the streets this lady rose
this bed of roses that i lay on
where i was taught to be a man
this bed of roses where i'm livin'
is the only kind of life i'll understand
she was a handsome woman just thirty-five
who was spoken to in town by very few
she managed a late evening business
like most of the town wished they could do
and i learned all the things that a man should know
from a woman not approved of,i suppse
she died knowing that I really loved her
from life's bramble bush i picked a rose
this bed of roses that i lay on
where i was taught to be a man
this bed of roses where i'm livin'
is the only kind of life i'll understand
this bed of roses that i lay on
where i was taught to be a man
this bed of roses where i'm livin'
is the only kind of life i'll understand
