Thereīs something ībout you manner
That makes it hard to see
Just how you take advantage
Of a workinī girl like me
Testi CanzoniIīve seen you set īem up
And Iīve seen you take īem down
Our love is legal tender
For your kind to pass around
Donīt want your bed of roses
Donīt want no handful of thorns
Donīt want to be your livinī doll
Donīt want to be no woman scorned
I donīt want to watch you turn the page
When our chapter closes
No, Iīm not gonna lay me down
In your bed of roses
Iīve tasted good and bad love
In the honky-tonks and bars
Iīve settled for the moon
When I was reachinī for the stars
And though sometimes I have stumbled
Iīve been known to fall
It was always true love
That took me to the wall
Donīt want your bed of roses
Donīt want no handful of thorns
Donīt want to be your livinī doll
Donīt want to be no woman scorned
I donīt want to watch you turn the page
When our chapter closes
No, Iīm not gonna lay me down
In your bed of roses
Girl, you better hide your love away
Girl, you better save it for another day
Donīt want your bed of roses
Donīt want no handful of thorns
Donīt want to be your livinī doll
Donīt want to be no woman scorned
I donīt want to watch you turn the page
When our chapter closes
No, Iīm not gonna lay me down
In your bed of roses
