Smell of roses does not remain 
I'm crawling, crawling
Like a snake I'm hung over 
Hung up & hung down

So I took my took my troubles down
And I quit my, quit my low down ways
And I took my my troubles down

I'm on a one way track
Burgundy & black 
All is gone, all is gone
So far away from home 
You're walking all alone
The fields burn away

The music did play the smoke drifts away
I put on my smile
I wander off in shame 
Even through the tears
I took my troubles, down, down, down

Smell of roses does not remain 
I'm crawling, crawling
Like a snake I'm hung over 
Hung up & hung down

So I took my took my troubles down
And I quit my, quit my low down ways
And I took my my troubles down

It's just a passing fright 
As cold as ice
My head began to spin
Stabbing on your brain 
Every breath you breathe 
No place to hide, to hide, to hide

I can't stand this 
Silk & satin
I can't stand this 
Silk & satin

Smell of roses does not remain 
I'm crawling, crawling
Like a snake I'm hung over 
Hung up & hung down

So I took my took my troubles down
And I quit my, quit my low down ways
And I took my my troubles down
