Another Man's Vine Lyrics - Blood Money - Tom Waits

Bougainvillea's bloom and wind 

Be careful mind the strangle vines 

The rose is a climbing over blind 

'Cause the sun is on the other side 

The bees will find their honey 

The sweetest every time 

Around a Red Rose 

I see a red rose, a red rose 

Blooming on another man's vine 

Golden Willie's gone to war 

He left his young wife on the shore 

Will she be steadfast everyday? 

While Golden Willie is far away 

Along the way her letters end 

She never reads what Willie sends 

Now I see a red rose 

I smell a red rose A red rose 

Blooming on another man's vine
