Tiger Rose Lyrics - Singles - Robert Hunter

Tiger Rose got new clothes 

The ladies love her so 

They laugh at her connections 

But they don't say no 

Get down high, get down low 

Get your heels in tow 

We don't care what 

Mama don't allow here anymore 

Tiger tea, tiger gee, you my Tiger Rose 

Gently roll me, honey, while I sing your song 

On the bank where children play 'ring a levio' 

Come on and show me somethin' I don't know 

There's the day breaking 

Windows shaking at my cabin door 

Love me like you did last night 

Just one time more 

I know it don't make sense 

But then it don't intend 

You keep coming by 

We'll make it up again 

Get up, Johnny, sing along 

Get along now, get along 

I could be right, I could be wrong 

Pretty soon be long gone 

Lay me down in worried sleep 

Listen while the river weep 

Thought I heard it sing a song 

Delta Queen done come and gone 

Tiger tea, tiger gee, you my Tiger Rose 

Gently roll me, honey, while I sing your song 

On the bank where children play 'ring a levio' 

Come on and show me somethin' I don't know 

Come on, big eyed handsome moll 

And be my party doll 

We'll live in jive o county 

'Neath the waterfall 

If people say, "What can you play? 

Just tell 'em, "Anything" 

Cut glass spur or a silver chime 

Can make 'em ring 

Tiger Rose, heaven knows 

I just love you so 

Maybe that's the reason 

That you don't say no 

You get high, get down low 

You my rodeo 

We don't give a damn 

What Mama don't allow here anymore 

Tiger tea, tiger gee, you my Tiger Rose 

Gently roll me, honey, while I sing your song 

On the bank where children play 'ring a levio' 

Come on and show me somethin' I don't know 

On the bank where children play 'ring a levio' 

Come on and show me somethin' 

Come on and show me somethin' 

Come on and show me somethin' I don't know
