Red-headed Wildflower Lyrics - Little River Band

RED-HEADED WILDFLOWER 

WRITERS BEEB BIRTLES, ED NIMMERCOL 

It's a shame, such a shame 

A red-headed wildflower in the wrong garden. 

The man on the street didn't wanna be mean, 

Her love was just the wrong kind, 

She helped him to the top, 

But the lovin' had to stop, 

He was years away when she died. 

It's a shame, such a shame 

No one was able to ease the pain 

A red-headed wildflower in the wrong garden. 

(A red-headed wildflower) 

The man in the band extended a hand 

he led a shadowy life 

she made it easy at the top but the lovin' had to stop, 

he was years away when she died. 

It's a shame, such a shame 

no-one was able to ease the pain 

it's a shame, it's such a shame 

no-one was able to to stop the rain ... 

On the day she died there were some who cried, 

so young, such a shame 

no one to blame, no, no ...
