Lyrics I Threw Away The Rose - Conway Twitty
(Merle
Haggard)
Once
I
lived
a
life
of
wine
and
roses
And
I
drank
a
lot
back
then
for
one
concern
Success
for
me
lay
just
around
the
corner
I
thought
my
social
friends
would
help
me
make
the
turn.
But
now
I′m
paying
for
the
days
of
wine
and
roses
A
victim
of
the
drunken
life
I
chose
Now
all
my
social
friends
look
down
their
noses
'Cause
I
kept
the
wine
and
threw
away
the
rose.

I
stood
by
and
watched
the
bottle
take
a
man
of
me
The
turn
I
made
was
not
the
one
I′d
planned
And
I
watched
my
social
friends
slip
away
from
me
While
I
watched
the
bottle
slowly
take
command.
But
now
I'm
paying
for
the
days
of
wine
and
roses
A
victim
of
the
drunken
life
I
chose
Now
all
my
social
friends
look
down
their
noses
'Cause
I
kept
the
wine
and
threw
away
the
rose...
′Cause
I
kept
the
wine
and
threw
away
the
rose...
