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 pushing daisies...
They'll want roses anyway
Oh and everything's comin' up roses
It's comin' up roses every day
I've got a heart bent on confusion
I'm punch drunk straight half the time
I'm feeling watered down and diluted
Still the weather's holdin' fine
Chorus
There's a piece of land in Kentucky
My grandfather worked one long hot day
Now it's a flatland blacktop strip mall
Still, I remember what he'd say
Chorus twice
Everyday... Everyday... Buy the dozen... Everyday
(Nanci Griffith - Matthew Ryan) 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 pushing daisies... They'll want roses anyway Oh and everything's comin' up roses It's comin' up roses every day I've got a heart bent on confusion I'm punch drunk straight half the time I'm feeling watered down and diluted Still the weather's holdin' fine Chorus There's a piece of land in Kentucky My grandfather worked one long hot day Now it's a flatland blacktop strip mall Still, I remember what he'd say Chorus twice Everyday... Everyday... Buy the dozen... Everyday Explain Request ×
