i beg your pardon i never promised you a rose garden along with the sunshine
there's gotta be a little rain sometimes when you take you gotta give so live and let live
or let go 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 growing on
so you better think it over
well if sweet talking you could make it come true
i would give you a rose garden
the world right now
so smile for a while and let's be jolly
i beg your pardon i never promised you a rose garden
along with the sunshine
there's gotta be a little rain sometimes
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 back
i beg your pardon
but if that's what it takes to hold you back
i'll just as soon let you go
but there's one thing i want you to know
y up and down, my love


you better look before you leap
still waters run deep
and there wont always be someone there
to pull you out
and you know what im talkin' about
so smile for awhile and let's be jolly
love shouldn't be so never-got-hold








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
