Burnin' Roses

I bought some American beauties Red double knockouts I hit up Walmart, Walgreens, Betties Flowers 'til I cleaned 'em all out Then I back my truck up To her front porch So she could see the bed of Betty, I'm sorry's I was there for She opened the door and said it's a bad time Wasn't wear nothing but a t-shirt And it wasn't mine And now I'm sitting on a fender Dipping long stems into kerosene Flicking this Bic and brushing these crimson ashes off my jeans I ain't saving any whiskey here tonight and no left behind cigarette I'm just out here all night petal, smoking it Burning roses I keep cutting my fingers on these damn thorns But now there's blood in the dirt But they say love hurts So I was warned There's a storm cloud rolling but my plans won't change I'll be out here starting these fires even in the pouring rain Yeah I'm sitting on a fender Dipping long stems into kerosene Flicking this Bic and brushing these crimson ashes off my jeans I ain't saving any whiskey here tonight and no left behind cigarette I'm just our here all night petal, smoking it Burning roses (Oh yeah) I couldn't dump 'em on the side of the road or just throw them all away After all they cost me all my dreams and half of one week's pay Yeah I'm sitting on a fender Dipping long stems into kerosene Flicking this Bic and brushing these crimson ashes off of my jeans I ain't saving any whiskey here tonight and no left behind cigarette I'm just down here all night petal, smoking it Burning roses Yeah I'm burning roses (Yeah yeah) (Oh Betty)
