Redneck Roses Lyrics - Singles - Byrd Tracy

Not so long ago 

On his way home from work 

He'd stop by the side of the road 

Step out of that old beat up Ford 

That he drove 

And he'd walk around 

Searchin' the ground 

For a handful of wildflower blooms 

Thinkin' of where he'd be soon 

There with her 

She called them redneck roses 

'Cause that's 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 it's years down the line 

She sits home alone 

It's the usual end of the day 

Once again, he's workin' late 

And never calls 

They've got a house on a hill 

No problems with bills 

And a baby that's on the way 

But her heart longs for those yesterdays 

And his love 

She called them redneck roses 

'Cause that's 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
