Not so long ago on his way home from work
G# A#
He?d stop by the side of the road
G# A# D#
Step out of that old beat up Ford, that he drove
Cm
And he?d walk around searchin? the ground
G# A#
For a handful of wildflower blooms
G# A# D#
Thinkin? of where he?d be soon, there with her?
[Refrão] G# A# D#
She called them redneck roses, cause that?s what they were
G# A#
A simple gift of love from a country boy to his girl
G# A# Cm A# G#
She called them redneck roses they didn?t cost a dime
A# D#
But they brought a smile to her face every time

Now it?s years down the line she sits home alone

It?s the usual end of the day
G# A# D#
Once again he?s still working late, but he never calls

They?ve got a house on a hill and no problems with bills

And a baby that?s on the way

But her heart longs for those yesterdays and his love
(repeat chorus)

They could still put a smile on her face

If he only had the time
