Put down your roses and bring out your poppies
I feel more blue than red tonight
Whispering pines don't mean much to you
But they're all that makes me feel home
The passing of time don't seem fast to you
But before long everything's gone
Put down your roses and bring out your poppies
I feel more blue than red tonight
Put down your roses and bring out your poppies
I feel more blue than red tonight, ah-ah-hi
And the South Georgia wind won't blow you to me
But it's gonna take me back home
The dust in the air, and the birds in the trees
Remind me that I'm not alone
Put down your roses and bring out your poppies
I feel more blue than red tonight
Put down your roses and bring out your poppies
I feel more blue than red tonight
Put down your roses and bring out your poppies
I feel more blue than red tonight, ah-ah-hi, ah-ah-hi
