Century Plant Lyrics

Outside my house is an cactus plant
They call it century tree
Only once in a hundred years
It flowers gracefully
And you never know when they will bloom

Chorus:
Hey do you wanna come out
And play the game
It’s never too late
Hey do you wanna come out
And play the game
It’s never too late

Clementine Hunter was fifty-four
Before she packed up her paintings
Old uncle Taylor was eighty-one
When he rode his bike across the plants of China
And the sun was shining on that day just like today

Chorus:

I’ve been know how to tell her for over thirty years
He kept locked up inside himself
And no one saw the tears
Than she went away
And he woke up that day
Now he brings roses to his sweetheart
She lives most anywhere
He sees someone suffering
He knows that he despair
He offers them a rose and some quiet prose
About dancing in the shimmering ballroom
‘Cause you never know when they will bloom

4x Chorus
