jennifer higdon - old fashioned roses lyrics
they ain’t no style about ’em
and they’re sorto’ pale and faded
yit the doorway here, without ’em
would be lonesomer, and shaded
with a good ‘eal blacker shudder
than the morning+glories makes
and the sunshine would look sadder
fer their good old+fashion’ sakes
i like ’em ’cause they kindo’++
sorto’ make a feller like ’em!
and i tell you, when i find a
bunch out whur the sun kin strike ’em
it allus sets me thinkin’
o’ the ones ‘at used to grow
and peek in thro’ the ch+nkin’
o’ the cabin, don’t you know!
and then i think o’ mother
and how she ust to love ’em++
when they wuzn’t any other
‘less she found ’em up above ’em!
and her eyes, afore she shut ’em
whispered with a smile and said
we must pick a bunch and putt ’em
in her hand when she wuz dead
but as i wuz a+sayin’
they ain’t no style about ’em
very gaudy er displayin’
but i wouldn’t be without ’em++
’cause i’m happier in these posies
and the hollyhawks and sich
than the hummin’+bird ‘at noses
in the roses of the rich
