She was called a scarlet woman by the people
7 -8 8 8 8 -8 7 7 -7 7 -8
Who would go to church but left me in the street.
7 -8 8 8 8 8 -8 7 7 -8 7 -6 6
With no parents of my own, I never had a home,
-7 7 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 7 -7 7 -8
And an eighteen-year-old boy has got to eat.
6 6 6 6 -5 -5 6 -6 -6 6
She found me outside one Sunday morning,
7 -8 8 8 8 -8 7 7 -7 7 -8
Begging money from a man I didn’t know.
6 6 6 6 6 -5 -5 6 -6 -6 6
She took me in and wiped away my childhood.
-8 8 8 8 7 6 -8 7 -7 7
A woman of the streets, this lady Rose.
Chorus:
6 6 6 -5-5 6 -6 -6 6
This bed of Rose’s that I lay on
7 8 -8 7 7 -7 7 -8
Where I was taught to be a man.
6 6 6 -5-5 6 -6 -6 6
This bed of Rose’s where I’m living
7 -8 8 8 8 7 6 -7 7 -7 7
Is the only kind of life I understand.
Verse 2
She was a handsome woman just thirty-five
Who was spoken to in town by very few.
She managed late evening business
Like most of the town wished they could do.
I learned all the things a man should know
From a woman not approved of, I suppose.
But she died knowing I really loved her.
Off life’s bramble bush I picked a rose.
-Chorus-
