Red Roses


  Now when I was just a little boy

  My Ma she died in vain

  I stood there by her grave

  With seven red roses in my hand

  My tears were flowing heavy

  I could hardly say a word

  Within the darkness found me

  I threw those flowers down

  I said goodbye to Ma

  And moved right out of town

  Lived a life of danger

  But I wore that silver crown

  There were chicks a plenty...scoring

  Faces I don't recall

  All in all just one lone party

  Getting high and playing ball -

  I know this life's a danger

  Can end at any time

  All I ask from all you buddies...is

  When I'm dead and gone

  Don't put seven red roses on my grave...

  No just don't throw seven roses in my grave!
