Neon Rose

She's a rose where roses never grow Behind the swinging doors she pours the wine that flows She keeps on pretending that she's having fun But it's a blue, blue rose that grows beneath the neon sun She's my sunshine lady Maybe just a little bit shady Someday I'll take her where real rose grow But until then she'll be my precious, precious neon rose The world is full of roses that bloom in the spring But to me there's just one rose that means anything I guess it's no secret what everybody knows Just how much I love my precious, precious neon rose She's a rose where roses never grow Behind the swinging doors she pours the wine that flows She keeps on pretending that she's having fun But it's a blue, blue rose that grows beneath the neon sun She's my sunshine lady Maybe just a little bit shady Someday I'll take her where real flowers grow But until then she'll be my precious, precious neon rose But until then she'll be my precious, precious neon rose --- Neon Rose - Mel Tillis
