Bramble Rose Lyrics - Merritt Tift

The ungrateful few who tangle inside 

Don't care where they're born, they're growin' up wild 

The rain makes me thirsty and fightin' to go 

My mind turns determined, dark as a storm 

CHORUS 

So my love has, grown as sharp as, a bramble rose 

Like a real good woman nobody knows 

I get so ashamed for makin' you blue 

I come back to this porch to make it all up to you 

The rain's got me thirsty, falling wasteful and slow 

I'm restless enough. I'm so scared to go 

CHORUS 

So my love has, turned as hard as, a bramble rose 

I'm a real good woman nobody knows 

Do you think I'll be happy out on the wind? 

Do you think I'll get halfway 'fore it's rainin' again? 

Will I find that I'm true when it's hardest to be? 

Or will the notions I follow have all turned on me? 

CHORUS 

Once my love has, blown as far as, a bramble rose 

Just a real good woman nobody knows
