Coyote Grace - Roses lyrics

Young at heart, in the garden I keep it dark, moss covered brick, wood, and stone Meadow lark, blossoms will harden The sun creep in on his own Tell you what, let's sit together Bench by my lattice work, swing in the tree I am coming to greet you To love you, maybe CHORUS: But don't f** with my roses, I will tell you when Back off my roses, untill i let you in Till I let you in Weather will blow leaving snow in the branches Or rain on the ground, making mud to the knee I'll build you a shelter, I'll boil the water Cut saplings for stakes, sticks, willows, and a shoe string Ain't this fun? Ain't we beautiful? Rough up the ground, sticking splinters in me Would you still wrap me in the dead of night When you can't see? [Chorus] Heavy soul, in my garden Don't you forget on who's ground you do stand I'll tie you in vines, crushing flowers High in the tower, set you to work with your hands Soil on your face, leaves in your mouth singing Sap in your hair, show me myself if you dare Spit in my dirt, if you want to I want it there [Chorus]
