Vern Gosdin - Rough Around The Edges lyrics

rate me

It’ll be rough around the edges

‘Cause all I’ve got is two hard workin’ hands

It won’t be no bed of roses

Oh, I love you and I’ll do the best I can

Limousines are parked there in your driveway

You were born into the finer things in life

Magazines would pay a fortune for your picture

Are you sure you want to be a poor man’s wife

It’s gonna get rough around the edges

A way of life that you won’t understand

It’ll be tough to burn those bridges

Livin’ with a common labor man

Chandeliers won’t decorate our hallway

There’ll be no fancy carpet on the floor

But through the years

But through the years

Ah, you know I’ll try to prove it to you someway

Oh, a millionaire could never love you more

It’ll be rough around the edges

There’ll be no diamonds in your wedding band

It won’t be no bed of roses

Oh, I love you and I’ll do the best I can

It’s gonna get rough around the edges

There’ll be no diamonds in your wedding band
