Love is a rose But you better not pick it It only grows when it's on the vine A handful of thorns and You'll know you've missed it You lose your love When you say the word mine I wanna see what's never been seen I wanna live that age old dream Come on, lads, we can go together Let's take the best right now Take the best right now I wanna go to an old hoe-down Long ago in a western town Pick me up cause my feet are draggin' Give me a lift and I'll hay your wagon Love is a rose But you better not pick it It only grows when it's on the vine A handful of thorns and You'll know you've missed it You lose your love When you say the word mine Mine, mine Love is a rose, love is a rose Love is a rose, love is a rose
