Blossom In the Dust
by Mallary Hope

Album: Blossom In the Dust - Single


Verse 1
There's a single-wide trailer past the railroad tracks
Old car in the front, weeds in the?back
Mama?had her there?when she was sixteen years old
Took?one look at her and named her Rose
Fragile little Rose had to grow up fast
Between the habit and the job that her mama had
I've never seen a situation half that bad

Chorus
She's a blossom in the dust
All her colors covered up
Give a rose a little rain
Lots of sun and all your love
And watch her blossom in the dust

Verse 2
We rescu?d that child in the nick of time
Found a real nic? couple 'cross the county line
Who'd been tryin' to have a little girl of their own
And would give anything to give a little Rose a home
That mama-to-be took one look at her
In her tattered flowered dress and her tangled curls
She said, "That's not just any girl"

Chorus
She's a blossom in the dust
All her colors covered up
Give a rose a little rain
Lots of sun and all your love
And watch her blossom in the dust

Bridge
Oh, sometimes the only way to overcome a circumstance
Is someone givin' someone else a fightin' chance

Chorus
She's a blossom in the dust
All her colors covered up
Give a rose a little rain
Lots of sun and all your love
She's a blossom in the dust
All her colors covered up
So watch her blossom in the dust
