Everyone knows
she's a rambling rose
she's a beauty growing wild
Birds in their nests
seem to whistle their best
Mother Nature's favorite child
She's got that kind of affection
that just winds
around your heart
You'd better run for protection
or she might upset your
flower cart
Hate to disclose
that my rambling rose
is gonna meet her Waterloo
I'll let her play
but she can't get away
'cause I know just what to do
Anyone knows you can
train a rose
to be a clinging vine
So from this day hence
there'll be a picket fence
round that rambling rose of mine
<Interlude>
She's got that kind of affection
that just winds
around your heart
You'd better run for protection
or she might upset your
flower cart
Hate to disclose
that my rambling rose
is gonna meet her Waterloo
I'll let her play
but she can't get away
'cause I know just what to do
Anyone knows you can
train a rose
to be a clinging vine
So from this day hence
there'll be a picket fence
round that rambling rose of mine
Everyone knows
she's a rambling rose
