Lyric Second Hand Rose (Second Hand Heart)

(Harlan Howard - Grant Clarke - James Hanley)

Second hand shoes, second hand clothes
They all call her second hand rose
They all think they re pretty smart
But rose don t have a second hand heart.

I love a little girl who lives across the way
I go to see her nearly every day
But when I get the money I ll take her away
And they can t gather around her and say.

(Second hand shoes, second hand clothes)
they all call her second hand rose
They all think they re pretty smart
But rose don t have a second hand heart.

--- Instrumental ---

They tease her about her clothes and things
It s hard to believe some folks could be so mean
But when I get the money I ll buy her the best
I ll take a rose you can have all the rest.

(Second hand shoes, second hand clothes)
they all call her second hand rose
They all think they re pretty smart
But rose don t have a second hand heart.

(Second hand shoes, second hand clothes)
they all call her second hand rose
They all think they re pretty smart
But rose don t have a second hand heart.

(My sweet rose...)
