I Never Promised You a Rose Garden - Billy Joe Royal

I beg your pardon

I never promised you a rose garden

Along with the sunshine

There's gotta be a little rain some time

When you take you gotta give so live and let live

Or let go la la la

I beg your pardon

I never promised you a rose garden

I could promise you things like big diamond rings

But you don't find roses growing on stalks of clover

So you better think it over

Well if sweet talking you could make it come true

I would give you the world right now on a silver platter

But doesn't really matter

So smile for a while and let's be jolly

Love shouldn't be so melancholy

Come along and share the good times while we can

I beg your pardon

I never promised you a rose garden

Along with the sunshine

There's gotta be a little rain some time

When you take you gotta give so live and let live

Or let go la la la ah

I beg your pardon

I never promised you a rose garden

I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon

But if that's what it takes to hold you

I'd never let you go

But there's one thing you want to know

Look before you leap still waters run deep

And there won't always be someone there to pull you out

And you know what I'm talking about

So smile for a while and let's be jolly

Love shouldn't be so melancholy

Come along and share the good times while we can

I beg your pardon

I never promised you a rose garden

Along with the sunshine

There's gotta be a little rain some time

When you take you gotta give so live

And let live and let go la la la ah

I beg your pardon

I never promised you a rose garden

I beg your pardon

I never promised you a rose garden
