Overtable Interlude - Cross Canadian Ragweed

I put the pedal to the metal, like a bullet through a barrel

I was halfway outta this town

The sun was sinking low, and as I watched it go where

You called me, said: Baby, won’t you turn around?"

I said: Forgive me darlin', but the highway has been calling

Gonna find another town and buy some new clothes

I have to beg your pardon, but there’s nothing in your garden

But a black rose

Yeah, a black rose

Well, it was fine in the beginning, but there always is an ending

And there’s always a twist in the plot

That web that you’ve been weaving is as strong as it’s deceiving

But I just ain’t believing that’ll get caught

I’m sure you’ll find another that don’t mind being smothered

By the kind of love a lover like you knows

It can only harden when it grows inside your garden

Like a black rose

Yeah, a black rose
