Nanci Griffith - Everything's Comin' Up Roses lyrics

(Nanci Griffith - Matthew Ryan) This life is filled with wonder This life is full of days not spent Oh I cannot help but ponder What relevance that lends Chorus Oh but everything is comin' up roses And when I'm pushing daisies ... They'll want roses anyway Oh and everything's comin' up roses It's comin' up roses every day I've got a heart bent on confusion I'm punch drunk straight half the time I'm feeling watered down and diluted Still the weather's holdin' fine Chorus There's a piece of land in Kentucky My grandfather worked one long hot day Now it's a flatland blacktop strip mall Still, I remember what he'd say Chorus twice Everyday ... everyday ... buy the dozen ... everyday
