Your reputation's bad and it's getting worse You couldn't get a dollar for what your word is worth Your bad luck runs you down like bad boys at your heels But I could never deny your eyes begging for one more meal Sister wild rose, it's the hard road But you and I know you can't ever let go You took it a long long way You back out and faith doing up All that good good stuff thinking It was worth the trade You let hold you down You let tear you apart And hold you in them Dirty hands squeeze your hostage heart Sister wild rose, it's the hard road But you and I know you can't ever let go Keep your love alive, it keeps you warm at night Coming from the cold, my sister wild rose La, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la Oh no, no, sister wild rose, it's the hard road But you and I know you can't ever let go No, keep your love alive, Lord, it keeps you warm at night Coming from the cold, my sister wild rose
