Ashley Monroe - Like A Rose lyrics

rate me

I was only 13 when daddy died

Mama started drinking and my brother just quit trying

I'm still bouncing back, heaven only knows

How I came out like a rose.

Ran off with what's his name when I turned 18

Got me out of North Dakota, but it did not change a thing

I left it in the yard, all covered up with snow

And I came out like a rose

Sitting in this diner with a coffee in my hand

Waiting on a bus to some promise land

I got a one way ticket as far as it goes

And I came out like a rose

So I'm headed south to anywhere that ain't so damn cold

Where I can warm my heart and shake the chills from my bones

It took a while to get here, it's been a long hard road

And I came out like a rose

Sitting in this diner with a coffee in my hand

Waiting on a bus to some promise land

I got a one way ticket as far as it goes

And I came out like a rose

It took a while to get here, it's been a long hard road

And I came out like a rose
