White Rhythm & Blues - Linda Ronstadt

I don’t want you to hold me tight

Till you’re mine to hold

And I don’t even want you to stay all night

Just until the moon turns cold

All I need is black roses

White rhythm and blues

And somebody who cares when you lose

Black roses, white rhythm and blues

You say that somebody really loves you

You’d find her if you just knew how

But honey, everyone in the whole wide world

Is probably asleep by now

And they’re dreaming of Black roses, white rhythm and blues

And somebody who cares when you lose

Black roses, white rhythm and blues

Close your eyes

Sleep away all your blues

I’ve done everything but lie

Now I don’t know what else I can do Ah, the night time sighs and I hear myself

But the words just stick in my throat

Would you think that somebody like me Might hurt much more than it shows

Just send me black roses

White rhythm and blues

And somebody who cares when you lose

Black roses, white rhythm and blues

Black roses, white rhythm and blues
