Tom Petty - The Golden Rose lyrics

rate me

Well, The Golden Rose sailed with a broken man Going south Got on board with a woman to lead him around By the mouth (Chorus:) And it's goodbye, Golden Rose Yeah, it's goodbye, Golden Rose Well, the captain who swears if he speaks at all Wears a gun Got a first maid who's never quite on the ball For his son (Chorus:) And it's goodbye, Golden Rose Yeah, it's goodbye, Golden Rose Wish I was back in her arms again Wish I was holding her tight Wish I was back in her arms again Safe from the night She stood on the shore and she waved to me: "Come back home" Many a-night I would think of her All alone (Chorus:) And it's goodbye, Golden Rose Yeah, it's goodbye, Golden Rose
