I beg your pardon
I never promised you a ro-ose garden
Along with the sunshine
There's got to be a little rai-ain sometime
When you take you got to give
So live and let live or let go-oh-oh-oh-oh
I beg your parden
I never promised you a ro-ose garden
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
But you don't find roses growin' on stalks of clover
So you better think it o-over
And if sweet talkin' you could make it come true
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter
But what would it ma-atter
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
Love shouldn't be so meloncholy
Come along and share the good times while we ca-a-a-an
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a ro-ose garden
Along with the sunshine
There's got to be a little rai-ain sometime
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a ro-ose garden
I could sing you a tune
And promise you the moon
But if that's what it takes to hold you
I'd just as soon let you go
But there's one thing I want you to know-ow-ow
You'd better look before you leap, still waters run deep
And there won't always be someone there to pull you out
And you know what I'm talkin' abou-ou-out
So-oh smile for a while and let's be jolly
Love shouldn't be so meloncholy
Come along and share the good times while we ca-a-a-an
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a ro-ose garden
Along with the sunshine
There's got to be a little rai-ain sometime
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a ro-ose garden [fade]
