Nanci Griffith - Everything's Comin' Up Roses Lyrics

This life is filled with wonder
This life is full of days not spent
Oh I cannot help but ponder
What relevance that lends

[Chorus:]
Oh but everything is comin' up roses
And when I'm pushin' up daisies...
They'll want roses anyway
Oh and everything is comin' up roses
Its comin' up roses every day

I've got a heart bent on confusion
I'm punch drunk straight half the time
I'm feelin' watered down and diluted
Still this weathers holdin' fine

[Chorus]

There's a piece of land in Kentucky
My grandfather worked one long hot day
Now its a flatland blackstop strip mall
Still, I remember what he'd say

[Chorus 2x]

Everyday.....everyday.....Buy the dozen....everyday
