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 your kind of gifts
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 stalks of clover
So you better think it over When it's 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 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
