Like A Rose (American Epic Session) Ashley Monroe

I was only thirteen when Daddy died
Mama started drinking and my brother just quit trying
I'm still bouncing back
Heaven only knows how I came out like a rose

Ran off with what's his name when I turned eighteen
It got me out of North Dakota, but it did not change a thing
I left it in the yard‚ all covered up with snow
And I came out like a rose

Sitting in this diner with a coffee in my hand
Waiting on a bus to some promise land
I got a one-way ticket as far as it goes
And I came out like a rose

So I'm headed south to anywhere that ain't so damn cold
Where I can warm my heart and shake the chill from my bones
It took a while to get here‚ it's been a long hard road
And I came out like a rose

Sitting in this diner with a coffee in my hand
Waiting on a bus to some promise land
Well I got a one-way ticket as far as it goes
And I came out like a rose

Well it took a while to get here
It's been a long hard road
And I came out like a rose
