Hank Snow - Convict and the Rose (Remastered) Lyrics

Lyrics Convict and the Rose (Remastered) - Hank Snow



Within my prison cell so dreary alone I sit with weary heart
I'm thinking of my lonely darling from her forever I must part
(A rose she sent him as a token she sent it just to light his gloom)
To tell me that her heart is broken to cheer me fore I meet my doom
She wrote I took it from the garden
Where once we wandered side by side
But now you hold no hope of pardon and I can never be your bride
(Vibes - guitar)
(The judge would not believe his story the jury said he had to pay)
Now to the rose and all its glory not guilty is all that I can say
Goodbye sweetheart for in the morning I'll meet my Maker and repose
And when I'll go at daylight dawning
Against my heart they'll find your rose
