"Buy Me a Rose" is from Kenny's 1999 album "She Rides Wild Horses."
When "Buy Me a Rose" topped the Billboard Country Songs charts in May 2000, the song made Rogers (who was 61 years old at the time) the oldest country singer to have a Number One hit.
Billy Dean and Allison Krauss provided background vocals on the recording.
The song has been featured during several television shows. Kenny was featured in a episode (Season 6, Episode 14) on "Touched By An Angel" in a story largely based on the song.
This is a video clip from the career retrospective DVD "The Journey"
"Buy Me A Rose"
(written by Jim Funk and Erik Hickenlooper)
♫ "He works hard to give her all he thinks she wants
A three car garage, her own credit cards
He pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss good night
If he could only read her mind, she'd say:
Buy me a rose, call me from work
Open a door for me, what would it hurt
Show me you love me by the look in your eyes
These are the little things I need the most in my life
Now the days have grown to years of feeling all alone
And she can't help but wonder what she's doing wrong
Cause lately she'd try anything to turn his head
Would it make a difference if she said:
Buy me a rose, call me from work
Open a door for me, what would it hurt
Show me you love me by the look in your eyes
These are the little things I need the most in my life
And the more that he lives the less that he tries
To show her the love that he holds inside
And the more that she gives the more that he sees
This is a story of you and me
So, I bought you a rose on the way home from work
To open the door to a heart that I hurt
And I hope you notice this look in my eyes
Cause I'm gonna make things right
For the rest of your life
I'm gonna hold you tonight
Do all those little things
For the rest of your life. "♫
