Love is a rose but you better not pick it   It only grows when it's on the vine   A handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it   You lose your love when you say the word mine      I wanna see what's never been seen   I wanna live that age old dream   Come on, lads, we can go together   Let's take the best right now   Take the best right now      I wanna go to an old hoe-down   Long ago in a western town   Pick me up 'cause my feet are draggin'   Give me a lift and I'll hay your wagon      Love is a rose but you better not pick it   It only grows when it's on the vine   A handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it   You lose your love when you say the word mine   Mine, mine      Love is a rose, love is a rose   Love is a rose, love is a rose
