The Convict And The Rose
Within my prison cell so dreary i sit alone with achin' heart i'm dreamin' of my little darlin' from her forever, i must part The rose she sent me as a token she sent it just to lighten my gloom and tell me that her heart was broken and cheer me before i meet my doom She wrote i picked it from the garden, where once we wandered side by side. now you hold no hope of pardon, and i can never be your bride. The judge would not believe my story Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com the jury said i had to pay and with the rose in all its glory 'not guilty' was all that i could say Goodbye, sweetheart, for in the morning to meet my maker i must go and when i die at daylight's dawnin' against my heart they'll find this rose Within my prison cell so dreary i sit alone with achin' heart i'm dreamin' of my little darlin' from her forever, i must part
