from "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" by Poison (I had to look up who sang it originally; I remember the Guns n Roses' version, but knew it was a cover. I always get all those 80s Glam/Hair Bands and all their power ballads mixed up - Poison, Cinderella, Twisted Sister, Quiet Riot; back then, it seemed if you had the hair, a case of hairspray, and a microphone, it was required that you release a power ballad.)
Every rose has its thorn Just like every night has its dawn Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song Every rose has its thorn

from "Lonely Road" by Everlast
I walk along the lonely road My back is strong, girl I'll carry the load I'm on the grind, in time I'll pay the debt that's owed I walk along the lonely road
next word: debt
Not surprising you've never heard of them; I'm pretty sure they were considered a one-hit wonder. The song though - Cumbersome - even if you didn't know that band's name, I'm surprised you've never heard song. It was inescapable back in the mid-to-late 90s, played incessantly on both rock and pop stations. I still hear it often on the classic rock station Hubs listens to (sounds kinda Lynyrd Skynrdesque to me).
