Slade - Dapple Rose lyrics

Once kept in a stable snug and warm

But now he's growing old in open fields he's forced to go

He often stands in hail, rain, freezing snow

He's certain that his master doesn't mean him any harm

Chorus

Dapple Rose he doesn't want you anymore

Times gone by you will remember

Dapple Rose you are cold and old and slow

Times gone by you will remember

His clothing was a shiny coat so fine

But now he's growing old and his beauty does decay

One night he heard his master frown and say

No poor old bones could stand this life of mine

Chorus

Dapple Rose he doesn't want you anymore

Times gone by you will remember

Dapple Rose you are cold and old and slow

Times gone by you will remember

Break

His food was of the best corn and best hay

But now there's no such thing and he hardly eats at all

He lives on sprouts that grow behind the wall

I doubt if he'll be lucky to last another day

Chorus

Dapple Rose he doesn't want you anymore

Times gone by you will remember

Dapple Rose you are cold and old and slow

Times gone by you will remember

Don't feel so bad, feel so sad

No more wearing shiny glory now they hang upon the wall

The hall in some far gone manor

Not a soul realises your a Dapple Rose of fame
