Redneck Roses Lyrics - Tracy Byrd

Not so long ago on his way home from work 

Hed stop by the side of the road 

Step out of that old beat up ford 

That he drove 

And hed walk around, searchin the ground 

For a handful of wildflower blooms 

Thinkin of where hed be soon 

There with her 

She called them redneck roses 

Cause thats what they were 

A simple gift of love from a country boy to his girl 

She called them redneck roses 

They didn't cost a dime 

But they brought a smile to her face every time 

Now its years down the line, she sits home alone 

Its the usual end of the day 

Once again, hes still workin' late 

And never calls 

They've got a house on a hill, no problems with bills 

And a baby thats on the way 

But her heart longs for those yesterdays 

And his love 

She called them redneck roses 

Cause thats what they were 

A simple gift of love from a country boy to his girl 

She called them redneck roses 

They didn't cost a dime 

But they brought a smile to her face every time 

They could still put a smile on her face 

If he only had the time
