Jackie Greene - The Red and the Rose lyrics

Well i'm a sinner, and you're a saint baby i love your new coat of paint so i'll keep on singing till these blues turn to gold .... i'll test the poison, i'll break the law write your name on a highway wall they say the higher you go, the better you are but the harder you'll hit when you fall baby i can't go running on empty you take the red from the rose all i've got is what you've left me now a dollar saved is a dollar lost look at what all these feelings cost i'm down on a dime, wasting my time and i can't seem to find words i've lost so ring around the rosey babe you might think that you've got it made but everyone knows, you keep changing your clothes there's a bill that will never be paid and baby i can't go running on empty you take the red from the rose hide that picture, man it always tempts me
