jack hardy - the war of the roses كلمات أغنية

[verse 1]
’twas a bonnie bunch of roses that my true love gave to me
she courted me quite freely when she was seventeen
she courted me so fully that it went right to my head
and ’twas a bonnie bunch of roses that i left beside her bed
well, i never told a falsehood and i never told a lie
i just stretched the bonnie truth a bit until i said goodbye
but ’twas never my intention to go and make hеr cry
that bonnie bunch of roses was a th_rn into my side

[verse 2]
so i wеnt off to seek my fortune as the only thing to do
i went and bought a racehorse who only missed a shoe
i was thinking ’bout the wagers and thinking ’bout the bets
and a bonnie bunch of roses they would place around his neck
well, ’round the final corner and ’round the final peg
my bonnie bunch of roses went and broke his bonnie leg
but ’twas me who did the runnin’ towards the bonnie red sunset
’cause it weren’t no bl__dy roses they were puttin’ round me neck

[verse 3]
so i went off to join the army as the only thing to do
the duke of york was draftin’ ’bout a thousand troops or two
and he gave us all a uniform and gave us all a nag
with a bonnie bunch of roses on the shield and on the flag
then he marched us ’round the town and he marched us down the glen
and he marched us up the bl__dy hill and marched us down again
but there weren’t so many comin’ down as there were goin’ up
and ’twas a bonnie bunch of roses that we placed upon the plots
[verse 4]
so i went back to find my true love as the only thing to do
i went and said “i’m sorry” and then i said “i do”
she was full of surprises as soon it was i learned
it weren’t no bunch of roses handed me on my return
well, now i’m down to the pub most every afternoon
my pension buys a pint and the children ask a tune
sing “the bonnie bunch of roses” and sing it once again
that bonnie bunch of roses gonna be my ball and chain
sing “the bonnie bunch of roses” and sing it once again
that bonnie bunch of roses gonna be my ball and chain
