YOU MIGHT SAY
SHE STARTED OUT
WITHOUT WHAT
FOLKS 'ROUND HERE
CALL A FAIR SHAKE
A LITTLE GIRL
WITH NO SHOES
ON HER FEET
TANGLED HAIR
NOT A NICKEL
TO HER NAME
AND NOT A CARE
BUT NO MATTER WHAT
HER SMILE
CAME SHININ' THROUGH
'CAUSE A ROSE
IS A ROSE IS A ROSE
AND EVERYBODY
KNOWS A LITTLE
SUNLIGHT AND
ROOM TO GROW WAS
ALL SHE NEEDED AND
SEEIN' HER FACE
IN TOWN WAS LIKE
SPRINGTIME
COMIN' AROUND WELL
I GUESS IT JUST
GOES TO SHOW
A ROSE IS A ROSE
IS A ROSE
TOMMY LEE
ALWAYS KNEW
WHAT HE WOULD DO
'CAUSE SHE MOVED HIM
DEEP DOWN IN HIS HEART
AND EVERYBODY
SMILED AT SUCH A PAIR
COULD THEY LAST
WITH TWO
DIFFERENT WORLDS
AND SIDES
OF THE TRACKS
BUT NO MATTER WHAT
THEIR LOVE
CAME SHININ' THROUGH
'CAUSE A ROSE
IS A ROSE IS A ROSE
AND EVERYBODY
KNOWS A LITTLE
SUNLIGHT AND
ROOM TO GROW WAS
ALL SHE NEEDED AND
SEEIN' HER FACE
IN TOWN WAS LIKE
SPRINGTIME
COMIN' AROUND WELL
I GUESS IT JUST
GOES TO SHOW
A ROSE IS A ROSE
IT ALWAYS FINDS
A WAY TO SHINE
BEAUTY IS
A STATE OF MIND AND
SEEIN' HER FACE
IN TOWN WAS LIKE
SPRINGTIME
COMIN' AROUND WELL
I GUESS IT JUST
GOES TO SHOW
A ROSE IS A ROSE
IS A ROSE
