A Rose Is A Rose

You might say she started out
Without what folks 'round here call a fair shake
A little girl with no shoes on her feet
Tangled hair
Not a nickel to her name
And not a care
But no matter what
Her smile came shining through
Cause a rose is a rose is a rose
And everybody knows
A little sunlight and room to grow
Was all she needed
And seeing her face in town
Is like springtime coming around
Well I guess it just goes to show
A rose is a rose is a rose
Tommy Lee always knew what he would do
Cause she moved him
Deep down in his heart
And everybody smiled at such a pair
Could they last with two different worlds
And sides of the tracks
But no matter what
Their love came shining through
Cause a rose is a rose is a rose
And everybody knows
A little sunlight and room to grow
Was all she needed
And seeing her face in town
Was like springtime coming around
Well I guess it just goes to show
A rose is a rose
It always finds a way to shine
Beauty is a state of mind
And seeing her face in town
Was like springtime coming around
Well, I guess it just goes to show
A rose is a rose is a rose
