Carl Vaughan performs "Room Full Of Roses"

"Room Full of Roses", written by Tim Spencer, is a song first recorded in 1949 by country music singer George Morgan. The original George Morgan version was released in the summer of 1949, and reached No. 4 on the Billboard country chart that August. A Sons of the Pioneers version reached #10 on the country charts in the same year. It was famously covered in 1974 by up-and-coming singer Mickey Gilley. The Gilley version was his first major hit and broke open his career.

Mickey Gilley Room Full Of Roses Lyrics

If I sent a rose to you

For every time you made me blue

You'd have a room full of roses

And If I sent a rose of white

For every time I cried all night

You'd have a room full of roses

And if I took the petals

I would tear them all apart

I'd be tearing at the roses

Just the way you broke my heart

If someday you're feeling blue

And you could send a roses, maybe too

Don't send me a room full of roses

But I want my arms around you

And if I took the petals

I would tear them all apart

I'd be tearing at the roses

Just the way you broke my heart

If someday you're feeling blue

And you could send a roses, maybe too

Don't send me a room full of roses

But I want my arms around you
