Mighty Like A Rose Lyrics - Van Morrison

You have drowned 

a thousand sorrows 

all in one, 

and mixed with mugs, (?) 

and millionaires 

you have done. 

Ya' been and gone and done it 

for a quid, 

and just what you don't know, 

up there you got hid. 

Lord, you're only 

fourteen summers 

and God knows, 

yeah, child, 

you're gettin' mighty 

like a rose.

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

You got pulled (?) 

for tryin' to straighten 

up this town, 

and looked bashful 

bribin' old, bent 

Barrister Brown. 

Ya' know, their turnin' on 

in the classroom 

ain't the point. 

It's when you're missin' out 

teacher teach ya' how to 

roll a joint. 

Lord, hey, 

while you're down there 

lookin' up my nose, 

yeah, 

child you're gettin' mighty 

like a rose. 

Next time they try to fire me, 

ya' make the scene. 

You're gettin' sugar cubes 

for breakfast. 

Ya' know what I mean. 

And the, the hazard old, (?) 

the wind blows 

through you' ears. 

Ya' haven't got enough 

of those 

what ya' 

haven't got for years. 

Yeah, but never mind 

steppin' on my toes. 

Yeah, child, 

you're gettin' mighty 

like a rose. 

Yeah, hey, hey, 

you're mighty like a rose. 

Uh-huh, aww, aww, aww, aww, aww, aww, 

mmm-mm, mmm-mm, mmm-mm, mmm-mm
