The Rose of My Cologne The Beautiful South

^DDaddy was an awful drunk ^GMommy was the ^Dloosest girl in town ^ABrother just some two bit punk ^GRode his Har^Dley D into the ground

Distant friends and relatives Each of them a problem they would share From the in-laws to the out laws Quietly she would soak their despair

^AShe was one of life's lil' angels ^GA job tha^Dt don't pay so well ^AGuiding those to heaven ^GThat should'^Dve gone to hell

Was it really worth it'

^GOnly ti^Ame and dea^Dth may ever tell ^AShe was the brick

At the base Of the house

^GA true ^Dfoundation stone ^AShe was the colour

And the sound And the taste

^GAnd the ^Drose of my cologne
