My father played this to my mother on a jukebox when they first dated. Rest in peace mam and dad.
I'm sure when you play this song your dad and mom will be smiling over you ❤🙏
NOBODY DIES 🎉🎉🎉
My dad loved this song. He died in 2012. ❤
Bless your Dad and you Kristina❤

I suffer from mental illmess since childhood (bipolar disorder and CPTSD). I heard this song as a child and loved it, this was probably around year 2000. It made me feel both happy and on the verge of melancholy. I was 10 and my life was going in a bad direction but I was still okay. About 10 years later I played this on repeat in my manic states, and sometimes even in the severe depressive episodes, but then I cried to it instead of it fueling me with power like the times when I was "up". Ironic.
2024 and still listening this. And why not, brilliant song.
This was my daughters favorite song. She was only 2 when the song was released but she knew the words and could sing along with it. She passed away in July 2020 but this brings her back to me whenever I hear it.
I’m so sorry hun 🥺
@@mimizee6548 Thank you. It's really difficult to lose a child.
@@tsomoza, so if I'm doing the math correctly, she'd have been about 52? That's so young. I'm very sorry for your loss!
@@tsomoza so sorry to hear! Sending Much Love xx xx
@@dawnsmith1796 Thank you for your kind words. It's nice to know there are people like you out there.
I work in a nursing home on the memory care unit with dementia residents. I loved when this song came on & the residents started singing knowing the majority of the words and we danced a bit. I am glad it randomly played while I was utilizing youtube during music therapy. Lovely song!
Hey melle👋👋
What a belt and thanks knackas x
Ava barber did a version of this song on Lawrence well show she was ok but nothing holds a candle to this song👍

My mothers favorite song. Gone for 50 years but not forgotten
March 1971 and my daughter was born. They played this every morning in the hospital, just at feeding time. Always reminds me of my beautiful baby, now a grown woman and still my world . Love this song.
Hello

One of my sister's was born March 1971 😊
Hi Lynne
I was born June 1971..lovely song 🎶
R.I.P Lynn Anderson, you will be missed and thank you for making this beautiful song 🙏🌹
So smile a while and let's be jolly.........enjoy the good times while they last. How true that is.❤❤
Unvergesslich!!!!!
Oh boy, this song really takes me back. And I’m only 28. I love these oldies songs. God bless my parents for introducing me to beautiful songs like this one.

So Sorry for the loss of your beautiful daughter ! The loss of anyone's child is such a sad process ! It begins on the day that they pass away and ends on the day that you join them 😢 Take Care my Friend
My grandmother sang this while cleaning, my mom and her sisters have fond memories of it.
She was diagnosed with Alzheimers and last time I visited I absent mindedly sung this song and she started singing word for word.
❤
What a beautiful story! thank you for sharing 😊
Ooooh, that is so sweet. ♥♥♥
I personally think this is one of the most perfectly arranged songs ever. Every instrument: strings, bass, guitars, steel guitars, drums, etc. is playing the perfect notes at the perfect time for the whole song.
Only behind "All my loving" by The Beatles which also has a country delicious flavor.
I was a child country singer and this song is a staple. Thx Lynn
Said everything I was thinking
@@jackmcdouglas4126 what's
Yes she has a beautiful voice
I wish we were still living in 60's America where artists were singing beautiful love songs not angry tirades.
Seriously? There were a lot of angry songs made in the '60s, too, not just love songs. This song isn't exactly a love song either, which is why it's not your typical generic pop song from that era.

The world has changed so much, it has become a horrible place!
Reminds me of childhood. When life was good, nice, honest and kind. How I miss those days…
I know right 🤔🤔
me too
I miss how stuff use to be. My gf and I were happy, but we broke up and Not as happy anymore. I am also struggling in school and risking disconnecting from the program.
The world changed in 2,000 for the worst:( GB everyone xo
Where did you live you lucky dog?
This song is so great. An oldie that never gets outdated.❤
I was dead 9 times on the operating table but the theatre staff put this on and i came back from the dead with the holy jesus at my side. My brain tumour disolved and instead turned into 250 billion bitcoin.
This song fifty years later still hits the spot.

The beauty of music
D
❤ Those were the times when the music was melodious and the lyrics were beautiful, giving energy and hope to life. My parents' music, but even though I'm 55 and from the next generation, I love this music, and I find the charm of the singers and musicians of that time amazing. I greet all Americans and Americans from Slovakia from Slovakia.
🙂🙋♂
Yes. This takes me back to when my mom was still young and happy. Always playing in the house 😢😢🎉❤❤
My Dad is in heaven now and this song still brings back memories of my Mom and Dad!
My mom, who passed when I was a teen, used to sing this all the time around the house. ❤
Paws_and_heart. I feel so sorry for your loss. Your mom had great taste in music. There was happily while your mom was alive.
I'm sorry for your loss, may your mom rest in peace 🙏

I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
There's gotta be a little rain sometime
When you take you gotta give so live and let live or let go
Oh-whoa-whoa-whoa
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
But you don't find roses growin' on stalks of clover
So you better think it over
Well, if sweet-talkin' you could make it come true
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter
But what would it matter
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Come along and share the good times while we can
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
There's gotta be a little rain some time
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
But if that's what it takes to hold you
I'd just as soon let you go
But there's one thing I want you to know
You better look before you leap, still waters run deep
And there won't always be someone there to pull you out
And you know what I'm talking about
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Come along and share the good times while we can
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
There's gotta be a little rain sometime
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
makes me tink about jesus loving us
My mama use to sing me this when I was a little girl.
I can still hear my mom singing this while cooking and cleaning in the kitchen.
I miss her so much.
For some reason, this song was going round inside my head today. So I had to come here for a listen.
I was 13 when this came out. I had assembled a cheap little crystal-radio kit on a piece of cardboard, and the local country station had the strongest AM signal. So, while I was more into other music, I developed an appreciation for country. But this song, like some of Patsy Clines' classics, goes way beyond country!
Props for the crystal-set! I'm in amateur radio.
@@pauls6897 Thanks. I never got into amateur or ham-radio. But tempted by the notion of having a radio that would never need batteries, I picked up the this crystal radio kit at the local 'dime-store', for less than $2. IIRC, it was made in Japan, and contained a coil & contact, a long piece of wire, a crystal diode, and a crystal earphone - all needing to be mounted on an un-folded piece of cardboard little bigger than a pack of cigarettes. It seemed to work best on the sill just outside my second-story bedroom window. So there it stayed for a year or two, letting me enjoy my local country station, until the weather finished it off!
Omg!!! Mee2!!! Wow!!!
It was the Fall of 1970; this song dominated the air waves; however, I was into other music and used to change the radio station. Now years and years later, I adore this song.
Dude how old are you like 58? I'm 39
@@basilaydyingm7506 do your math he would have been 8 years old in 1970

Thinking of you in your loss of your dad.x

@Evie Hearn thankyou😢
@@karenboromeo5752 😭😭😭😭
My grandad used to blast this while driving, we'd sing along to it when I was a little kid, and now he's on his death bed with cancer. I came to listen to this song to remember the good times with him, when he'd take me to feed the ducks or to go to the park etc.
Back then I was a heavy Rocker - Uriah Heep, Status Quo, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd.... When I heard this song on our restaurant Juke Box, I fell in love with Lynn Anderson. What an amazing song, sung so well and without so emotion! Love it. Miss you Lynn, see you in Glory!
Did you know Joe South wrote this and he also wrote Hush by Deep Purple?
Same here! Heep, BTO, Deep Purple, Foghat, loved all of em and still listen to them to this day. But I have a secret passion too - traditional country songs like this one. I have nothing but love and deep respect for people like Lynn, Merle, Johnny, Loretta and the rest. Their music is simply timeless.
Me, too. I listed to rock music all the time and didn't listen to country at all, but years later, I find this song to be so enjoyable to listen to. That's the magic in the music.
Me too, UriahHeep100, !
@@steveschellenberg7485 Wow! Seriously? Thank you for sharing this!

Lovely song, brings back memories of my childhood.
❤Anderson chose the right song! So true to life!❤
This is a song i grew up hearing it always makes me smile my mom used to turn up the radio every time it came on..
Penny!...... A song ..... I played a lot! ..... I cried! .. Hearing it tonite ...... many decades later ..... It's less dramatic ..... to me?? I guess this teen ..... finally grew out of the rose garden ...... tried the bowl of cherries?? ..... & can't spit out .... any more pits! ..... That's real life! .... lol
Me too
Still one of the 10 best songs ever
Yes, I remember this song similarly. :-) 🌷

A big hit between late 1970 and early 71. Bigger on the country charts. Very well done!
It was popular in NZ
Fantastic female country vocalist !!
I just introduced this song to my 13 year old granddaughter, explained this is a classic and one of the best songs ever sung ❤.
Hello Karen
How are you doing today?
My Mum used to listen to this on a Sunday whilst doing housework, god, I couldn't stand it, funny now, I love it
Same 😂😂
"Whilst" ? Oh heck, so this was popular in the UK too? Love it!
@@choirboyfromhell1 Yep, this song was a banger everywhere
I was born in 1999 but this was my mom's favorite song. First song I ever learned the lyrics too. I Preformed it for all my family members as a kid. Wish I could reverse time and I'm only 24.
50 years ago, I heard that song for the first time on the B-side of a Polish single record. By now I have lived in several countries on three different continents, and I still love this song.
this was my grandmother’s favorite song, i never got to meet her but my mom says if you hear your ears ring, she’s in the room. my ears ring whenever i play this song❤️❤️ wish i could’ve met you grandma violet
Time to call the ghostbusters
That is really sweet but scary
Back when a number one song was really very impressive cause it had to climb the charts over weeks and months and generally sweep the whole country to reach the top. Grammy Award for best song of the year, huge crossover number one, made millions of dollars - the perfect AM radio hit and all under three minutes!
You said it perfectly. I've said before, back when this song went #1 people had to like a song well enough to get off their asses and go to a store to buy it. It's easy to sell a million now when you can sit in the comfort of your home and get a song from a zillion available sources. This song went #1 around the world - almost unheard of at that time (especially for a country record), and transformed Lynn Anderson into a superstar.
thats true
Brilliant my daughter loved this she was 3 yrs old, shes 29 now xx she still loves it make her cry xx
Blown away by the song still and many others in this genre because of the production value was so good top-notch players and they didn’t have any toys like we have now other than reverb and possibly echo.
If you know anything about production back in the day, they didn’t have a whole lot going on so they do a lot of this in x amount of takes.
Good music is timeless. This is one of those songs there ain’t no auto tune here enjoy😎
My dad was a HUGE fan! I was a kid, and would sit with him and listen to her.
back in the 70s Marine corps Boot camp there was a banner said just that😂 great song!!
Just Lost my best friend 💔 my mother😔, we had this song playing for her slideshow 😢at the church, it was beautiful, and she got to meet her favourite Singer in person in Townsville Queensland Australia, concert, so it was fitting for her beautiful service.💜💜🤗🤗
Nothing but good memories when this song comes on my playlist. Peace and blessings to all who are still listening to this song in 2023!❤
I knew the comments would make my eyes heavy. It’s one of those songs for sure.
I was 8 years old when I first heard this song; 52 years later, I'm still loving it! RIH, Lynn 😇💓
i was 9 & still remember ever word
I was 10 and loved it.
😋
“So smile for a while and let’s be jolly. Love shouldn’t be so melancholy. Come along and share the good times while we can.”
So powerful, some of the greatest lyrics ever written from any genre!!!! Same with the chord progression underneath those lyrics, elevates the song from a great and beautiful song to star status!!!!
Hey how are you doing today..?
What a beautiful piece of art. These lyrics still echo as advice to our society today. You don’t have to look very far to find stunning, classic music. This was a huge country crossover onto the pop charts and made a number one for Lynn Anderson, and made for platinum sales several times over. Just brilliant.❤😊
One of my favorites
My Mother hammered all this in my head God rest her soul she was always right
My fathers favorite song at the time, playing on a cold winters morning --taking me to work along the snow covered roads! Never hear this without thinking of my dad!
❤To boli časy, keď hudba bola melodická a texty krásne, dodávali energiu a nádej do života. Hudba mojich rodičov, ale aj keď mne je 55 a som už z ďalšej generácie, túto hudbu milujem, a šarm spevákov a hudobníkov tej doby mi pripadá úžasný. Pozdravujem zo Slovenska všetkých Američanov aj Američanov zo Slovenska. 🙂🙋♂

I love this song. I will never STOP LISTENING TO IT.
I adore this tune. I'm a 54 year old in the UK, who loved electro but deep down C&W and this tune absolutely hits all the spots, thank you.
As an avid classic rocker, I love these 60s and 70s chicks , such easy listening, long may this music live.
Hello how are you doing today…?
This ONE song (and singer) did more for country music's mainstream acceptability than probably any other. The singer & the song expanded the listening audience for country music.
Got to see Lynn at a county fair is N. Louisiana back in the 70's. We were just driving around and stumbled onto this county fair, and I got see Lynn and Charlie Pride singing together. It was so magical and wonderful.
When I was about 4 years old (1971) my Mom and I used to sing this all of the time. It was on the radio and we also had the album that is displayed above. I actually still have that album today. One day Mom wanted to record the 2 of us singing. That's what we did. I so wish I still had that cassette tape but sadly I don't. My Mom passed away 2 years ago today, September 27, 2021. I sing it often and did twice today. I could feel Mom's presence while I was singing. Especially the first time through. This song brings me great joy and great memories. I miss my Mom very much but I experience great joy and calmness whenever I hear it. Thank you Lynn Anderson and all of those responsible for this beautiful song. I will cherish it always.
So many songs remind us of the loved ones we lost.
I believe we'll be with our loved ones in time. Pain free and happy, you'll be able to sing with your Mom again.
I'm so sorry for your loss, may your mom rest in peace and watch over you from heaven 🙏🕊
Thanks to Joe South for this great song. He was a gifted songwriter. RIP brother. Listened to him sing many of his songs while serving active duty in the late sixties.
In this hard world we need a nice melody's like this song... Like a beautiful rose garden ❤️☺️
That's not what this song is about. Listen to the lyrics. She's telling a man with stars in his eyes that real life isn't a rose garden.
@@KennyRider137
Sorry my english not perfect, i know what is the lyrics, i just say we need nice melody's, and this melody is perfect for me like a rose garden.
🙂
I love this beautiful and classic song written by the late singer and song writer Joe South and recorded in 1970 by the late very pretty and very talented singer Lynn Anderson. This song is pure magic! I was born in 1978. I own this song on CD. Thank you for posting and sharing this!
I love this song so much. It reminds me of my childhood days in the 70's. So many beautiful memories.
I love this song to
Same..☺️💖
In Germany to👍👍👍❤
great memories i tear up every time i hear this song
Man, this song just blows me away. I grew up on rock, classical, a little country, and pop. Didn't much care for country, but my parents did. I'm glad I had the sense to just listen. I remember hearing this song for the first time. I fell in love with Lynn, the song, and especially that steel guitar! Still in love.
I remember seeing her perform live back in the 1970s when i was quite young, and was lucky enough to get two autographs from her after the show. One of them was on my left arm that i showed off at school the next day, lol.
A classic written by the much-underrated Joe South. This brings back a lot of memories from my childhood.
O'le Joe wrote some goodens didn't he
Under 30 and find this song great! Who else?
34 just arrived 😎
18 and found out about this song since my 48 year old mom told me she used to love this song as a kid
Welcome to a great era of music. I was about 10 when this was in the charts. Do I feel old! It was a one hit wonder in the UK. It was one of a number of light easy going songs with beautiful orchestration which were a contrast to more traditional pop songs. Lynn died a few years ago but left us some musical gems on her albums.

Here!
Awesome song from the 1970's still telling the truth. Love this song. I never get tired of listening to it...
The arrangement of this song is sublime
This was a big breakout in Italy. Today we celebrated 50th marriage anniversary of my uncle and aunt (9-12-1970 -- 9-12-2020), and my aunt, that got married at 19, told me this song was on the radio while she was going to the chapel, in a dark blue 1965 Studebaker Commander. We listened to this. Went at #1 in italian charts in 1970. Great song
My teacher who was country used to tell me this from time to time. Funny, how somethings just stay with you. Great song, words and meaning. It will always be country to me and I used it whenever I can with my colleagues, family and friends.
I was only 4 when this song was released, now 57 and still love it💜💜💜
Beautiful music !! I like it 🌷‼
Hey how are you doing today..?

Hello 👋 Leona. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I’m Zack Hudson and am from Denver Colorado. Where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
My had Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, but she loved this song for many years. We liked her Christmas album too. I still have it and listen to it every Christmas.
Hey 👋
Sometimes all the parts just come together right. With Miss Anderson’s sweet voice, the background vocals, the first rate musical arrangement and the cute lyrics, we have a timeless classic. Throw in a bit of nostalgia and we’re in Heaven for a couple of minutes.
(You gotta love how this 21st century technology makes so much music available 😚)
Absolutely a wonderful song, and we will miss you Lynn Anderson, rest in peace.
Don’t know how many of you know this but she grew up in the Sacramento, California area. I live elsewhere now but in the mid-1980s I was living in the Sacramento area. at least a couple of times a week, I would pass her old high school Bella Vista High School in Fair Oaks, California (she was class of 1965).. Although Nashville and country music fame lured her away from Sacramento, she will always be a Bella Vista Bronco, and will be remembered proudly.
FYI, I am not a graduate of Bella Vista nor did I attend there, I am writing that based on What I was told and impressions I got when I was living in that area. Nothing like that was posted at least here, so I thought I would do it.
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing with us.
Lynn was a sweet lady whom struggled much but put out such beautiful music. Her voice just was sweet and comfort. She is very much missed.
I heard on XM radio she wanted to record the song written by Joe South but her record producers told her it was a man's song. Boy were they wrong. Song was a monster hit. Great arrangement and Lynn Anderson's voice was perfect.
What perfection and control in the way she sings this!
I remember seeing her perform live back in the 1970s when i was quite young, and was lucky enough to get two autographs from her after the show. One of them was on my left arm that i showed off at school the next day, lol.
I want this playing at my funeral
❤❤❤
me too
I walked to school in the 1st grade but stopped at a friend's house so we could walk together and this song was playing just about every morning.
Definitely another classic that never gets old!
My dad’s favourite. RIP Beautiful Dad x
I'm sure your dad will be smiling over you when you play he's sing to him ❤️🙏
And mum's
One of the Greatest Songs of the last 50 yrs then some. Respect to All involved.
Still reinvent 2 day.
This is so nostalgic. I'm 47 now, but remember listening to it as a little girl.
Who doesn't love this beautiful song? Fantastic!
I dont
Love it
I have loved this record since I was eleven, I'm sixty four now 😢. I don't know what it is the lyrics the melody the arrangement the singer a bit of everything perhaps.
Never get tired of listening.😊.
I'm 34 I just found this on RUclips and it's just amazing ❤
Had the pleasure of seeing Ms. Anderson perform this live in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, at the Ottawa Exhibition in August of 1977. She opened for, the one and only ... Bob Hope. Twas grand!
I remember seeing her perform live back in the 1970s when i was quite young, and was lucky enough to get two autographs from her after the show. One of them was on my left arm that i showed off at school the next day, lol.
'Rose Garden', fitted in nicely with the mellow vibes of early-70s pop radio.
A very pleasant piece of country-pop and an optimistic anthem which is graced by Lynn Anderson's fine, sweet vocals and a lush, inviting production.

When this song came out I was at Belmont Highschool in Los Angeles and my first girlfriend that I had in the 10th grade was Rosa Gutierrez who dumped me by stating "I never promised you a Rose Garden". Rosa taught me a very valuable lesson about love, so thank you Rosa Gutierrez from 1970-1971.
Great memories of a classic era of country music. My dad loved Lynn Anderson and this song is a great reminder of him. Miss you, Dad.
Thank you Joe South for writing this wonderful song. Lynn did a wonderful job on this song and others that Joe South wrote.
I beg your pardon.... this song is marvelous!! 👍
Man, I haven't heard this song in decades--nice blast from the past! 🙂
This is my favourite song from childhood before my mum died x
This was a big hit when I was in Vietnam in 1971, and all over the world, Now June 2022. For her husband Sutton not even wanting her to record it, he sure did a great production on it, real big.
No. 1 in 16 countries around the globe. Unheard of in 1971 for a 'country' song.
Thank you for your service!
I went to Bob Hope's Christmas show in Vietnam 1971. We must have had about 5K in attendance. He put on a great show as always. One of his jokes still has me in stitches. Hey fellas, DaNang, that's Vietnamese for " I Never Promised You A Rose Garden". Thanks Bob and Lynn!
