| | | Artist: | George Jones |
| | Album: | Miscellaneous | | Track: | I Threw Away The Rose | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 128 | | | | Lyrics: | Written by Merle Haggard
(As performed by George Jones)
Once I lived a life of wine
and roses
I drank a lot back then for one concern
Success for me lay just around the
corner
I thought my social friend would help me make the turn
But now I'm paying for
the days of wine and roses
A victim of the drunken life I chose
Now all my social friends
look down their noses
For I kept the wine and threw away the rose
I stood by and
watched the bottle take control of me
The turn I made was not the one I planned
And I
watched my social standings slip away from me
As I slowly watched the bottle take command
And now I'm paying for the days of wine and roses
A victim of the drunken life I
chose
Now all my social friends look down their noses
For I kept the wine and through away
the rose | | | |
