Roger Miller Everything's Coming Up Roses Lyrics

Here we are in court today,
Rose just took the stand.
She's divorcing me for reasons I still don't understand.
That dress is showing more of her than I've seen in years,
And the story that she's tellin's even has the judge in tears.

She accusing me of hanging out with girls of ill-repute.
Adultery, abandonment, even alchol abuse.

I just heard my Mother shout, "Your Honor, throw the book!"
And even my attorney just gave me a dirty look!

Everything's coming up Rose's,
The house, the car, the kids and all the cash.
Everything's coming up Rose's
I'll be lucky if I keep the shirt that's on my back!

My head is buried in my hands, the courtroom is ajourned.
She got all I ever made and all I'll ever earn.
If I had a hankerchief, I'd break right down and cry.
Why even Johnny Carson got a better deal than Mine!

Everything's coming up Rose's,
The house, the car, the kids and all the cash.
Everything's coming up Rose's
I'll be lucky if I keep the shirt that's on my back!

Everything's coming up Rose's
I'll be lucky if I keep the shirt that's on my back!
