[00:00.78]Sitting up here in this New York townhouse
[00:04.60]Decorated in grays and blues and everybody knows
[00:10.82]Love won't grow for a cactus and a rose
[00:19.22]When that old wild streak beneath my skin
[00:23.21]Sets my crazy spree again
[00:26.46]They'll all say I told you so
[00:29.45]Love won't grow for a cactus and a rose
[00:37.71]'Cause I still like to drink my beer
[00:41.26]And I still love a honky tonk
[00:44.95]Where the good ole girls will always dance with you
[00:48.75]When the high falootin' women won't
[00:52.76]And I'm locked into a way of life
[00:56.07]I can't give it up I know it makes me sad
[01:01.70]Love can't be had for a cactus and a rose
[01:06.63]It makes me sad
[01:09.12]Love can't be had for a cactus and a rose
[01:48.69]Sometimes falling makes more sense
[01:52.06]Than sitting in the middle of the same old fence
[01:55.43]You're gonna loose either way you go
[01:58.80]And love won't grow for a cactus and a rose
[02:06.77]So I'm sitting up here in this New York townhouse
[02:11.36]Decorated in grays and blues and everybody knows
[02:17.41]Love won't grow for a cactus and a rose
[02:25.36]'Cause I still like to drink my beer
[02:28.86]And I still love a honky tonk
[02:32.60]Where the good ole girls will always dance with you
[02:36.53]When the high falootin' women won't
[02:40.40]And I'm locked into a way of life
[02:43.83]I can't give it up I know it makes me sad
[02:49.39]Love can't be had for a cactus and a rose
[02:54.32]It makes me sad
[02:56.82]Love can't be had for a cactus and a rose
