Roses and diesel don't mix.    You can't just come and go    I sit around and wonder, why I should be alone      I know Venus came from Mars    And Venus sure could play guitar    Born in the way of desires In my eyes, Venus was a star      Working hard, time was very    Few and far between, we'd marry    I wait up for you at night    Though I won't see you 'til January      Roses and diesel don't mix.    You can't just come and go    I sit around and wonder, why I should be alone      When will I see you again?    On the road next week, I dread    That you'll be on a bus to nowhere    Singing about the days that might have been      Put down that guitar, I'm talking to you    I can't seem to quite get through    Trying to talk about our future,    A house, some kids, and how much I miss you      Roses and diesel don't mix.    You can't just come and go    I sit around and wonder, why I should be alone      Oh no, I won't let go    In time you will know    What it means to be...    All in good time      Roses and diesel don't mix.    You can't just come and go    I sit around and wonder, why I should be alone      Roses and diesel don't mix.    You can't just come and go    I sit around and wonder, why I should be alone
