White Rose

Yea, the whole town came out to watchThe day the paved the parking lotSomebody hung a ribbon up,And then they cut it downAnd that big white rose upon that signPut innocence in all our livesWe could see its neon lightfrom half a mile outGas was .50 cents a gallonThey'd put it in for youthey'd bump your tires and check your oil,And wash your windows tooAnd We'd shine those cars bright as brightWe'd go park underneath that lightStare out at the prairie skyThere was nothing else to doAnd now there's plywood for glassWhere the windows all got smashedAnd there's just a chunk a'concreteWhere those old pumps used to standThere's a couple a'cars half outta the groundAnd that old sign still spins 'round 'n 'roundI guess the White Rose fillin' station's just a memory nowAnd the girls would spend a couple of bucksJust to meet the boys workin' at the pumpsAnd we'd pull up and fall in loveAnd they've all moved awayStrangers used to stop and askHow far they've driven off the mapAnd then they built that overpassAnd now they stay out on the highway'Cause there's plywood for glassWhere the windows all got smashedAnd there's just a chunk a'concreteWhere those old pumps used to standThere's a couple a'cars half outta the groundAnd that old sign still spins 'round 'n 'roundI guess the White Rose fillin' station's just a memory nowAnd that neon sign was the heart and soulof this ol' one horse townAnd it's like it lost its will to liveThe day they shut it downAnd now there's plywood for glassWhere the windows all got smashedAnd there's just a chunk a'concreteWhere those old pumps used to standThere's a couple a'cars half outta the groundAnd that old sign still spins 'round 'n 'roundI guess the White Rose fillin' station's just a memory nowYea that ol' White Rose fillin' station's just a memory now
