Blossom In The Dust
Your rating:
<br> There's a single-wide trailer past the railroad tracks<br> Old car in the front, weeds in the back<br> Mama had there when she was sixteen years old<br> Took one look at her and named her Rose<br> <br> Fragile little Rose had to grow up fast<br> Between the habit and the job that her mama had<br> I've never seen a situation half that bad<br> <br> CHORUS:<br> She's a blossom in the dust<br> all her colors covered up<br> Give a rose a little rain<br> Lots of sun and all your love<br> And watch her blossom in the dust<br> <br> We rescued that child in the nick of time<br> Found a real nice couple 'cross the county line<br> who'd been trying to have a little girl of their own<br> and would give anything to give little Rose a home<br> <br> That mama-to-be took one look at her<br> in her tattered flowered dress and her tangled curls<br> She said that's not just any girl<br> <br> CHORUS<br> <br> Oh, sometimes the only way to overcome a circumstance<br> is someone giving someone else a fighting chance<br> <br> CHORUS<br> <br> [Thanks to emily for lyrics]<br> <br>
