I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
+
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometime
+
When you take you gotta give so live and let live and let go oh oh oh oh
+
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
+
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
+
But you don't find roses growin' on stalks of clover
+
So you better think it over
+
Well, if sweet talking you could make it come true
+
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter
+
But what would it matter
+
So smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy
+
Come along and share the good times while we can
+
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
+
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometime
+
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
+
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
+
But if that's what it takes to hold you I'd just as soon let you go
+
But there's one thing I want you to know
+
You'd better look before you leap still waters run deep
+
And there won't always be someone there to pull you out
+
And you know what I'm talking about
+
So smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy
+
Come along and share the good times while we can
+
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
+
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometime.....
+
I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden
+
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometime.....
+
(Wrap it up...)
