Lyrics Red Roses for Me - The Dubliners , Finbar Furey
A
sober
black
shawl
hides
her
body
entirely
Touched
by
the
sun
and
the
salt
spray
of
the
sea
But
down
in
the
darkness
a
slim
hand
so
lovely
Carries
a
rich
bunch
of
red
roses
for
me
Her
petticoat
simple
and
her
feet
are
but
bare
And
all
that
she
has
is
but
neat
and
scanty
But
stars
in
the
deep
of
her
eyes
are
exclaiming
I
carry
a
rich
bunch
of
red
roses
for
thee
No
arrogant
jewel
sits
enthroned
on
her
forehead
Or
swings
from
a
white
ear
for
all
men
to
see
But
jewelled
desire
in
a
bosom
so
pearly
Carries
a
rich
bunch
of
red
roses
for
me
A
sober
black
shawl
hides
her
body
entirely
Touched
by
the
sun
and
the
salt
spray
of
the
sea
But
down
in
the
darkness
a
slim
hand
so
lovely
Carries
a
rich
bunch
of
red
roses
for
me
