One of these days the gig is up
Shouldn't we take the time now
To show our love

One of these days the gig is up
Shouldn't we take the time now
To show our love

Yeah, I got the blues again
My mistake
Tell me did you see the end comin'
Now I'm searchin' for a sign
But looking back there're only good times

Now I'm on the road again
My soul aches
It's clear that match won't work for me
And now though things don't seem so hot
I know I gave him all the love I got

Bye, bye roses
I got me a hand that's bitter sweet
But I don't care
I've known the garden
But I don't care
I've known the garden
I've known the garden

Bye bye roses
I got me a hand that's bitter sweet
But no regrets
I've known the garden
But no regrets
I've known the garden
I've known the garden

One of these days the gig is up
Shouldn't we take the time now
To show our love

One of these days the gig is up
Shouldn't we take the time now
To show our love

She was always my best friend
Never late and coffee ice cream made her smile
Now she's left and gone away
And I'm here by myself another day

And though I'll miss her to no end, my heart breaks
Tell me did she see the end comin'
At least I know it was sunny
All the time that she spent with me

Bye, bye roses
I got me a hand that's bitter sweet
But I don't care
I've known the garden
But I don't care
I've known the garden
I've known the garden

Bye bye roses
I got me a hand that's bitter sweet
But no regrets
I've known the garden
But no regrets
I've known the garden

One of these days the gig is up
Shouldn't we take the time now
To show our love

One of these days the gig is up
Shouldn't we take the time now
To show our love

One of these days the gig is up
Shouldn't we take the time
Bye, bye roses
I got me a hand that's bitter sweet

But I don't care
I've known the garden
But I don't care
I've known the garden
To show our love
