Coffee in the mornings
******* afternoons
Smoking joints in joints
Listening to music
Every night by moon
My youth went up
As another puff
As another sniff , a wiff
And before I knew it
I was looking very ruff
I can't even remember
If I slept at all
Or who I was sleeping with
For all I see are faces
Their names I don't recall
Rosebud tripped on the step
Coming out the entrance door
She fell into my open arms
I would never be the same man
As I was just before
See most women
Leave their jewelry
Rosebud left her name
Rosebud loved the thunder
Rosebud loved the rain
She scared me like lightning
Laugh at all my pain
She never asked me if I loved her
She never said the same
She laid her head upon my shoulder
Said when you're gone
I will be sorely pained
Rosebud tripped on the step
Coming out the entrance door
And fell into my open arms
I would never be the same man
As I was just before
See most woman
Leave their jewelry
Rosebud left her name .
