Here we are in court today Rose just took the stand She's divorcin' me for reasons I still don't understand That dress is showin' more of her Than I've seen in years And the story that she's tellin's Even got the judge in tears
She's accusin' me of hangin' out With girls of ill repute Adultery, abandonment Even alcohol abuse I just heard my mother shout Your Honour throw the book And even my attorney Just gave me a dirty look
Everything's comin up Roses The house, the car, the kids and all the cash Everything's comin up Roses And I'll be lucky if I keep the shirt that's on my back
My head is buried in my hands The courtroom is adjourned She got all I ever made And all I'll ever earn If I had a handkerchief I'd break right down and cry-y Why, even Johnny Carson Got a better deal than mine
Everything's comin up Roses The house, the car, the kids and all the cash Everything's comin up Roses And I'll be lucky if I keep the shirt that's on my back
Everything's comin up Roses And I'll be lucky if I keep the shirt that's on my back
