billy joe shaver - black rose lyrics
way down in virginia
amongst the tall grown sugar canes
lived a simple man and a dominiker hen
and a rose of a different name.
well, the first time i felt lightning
i was standing in the drizzling rain
with a trembling hand and a bottle of gin
and a rose of a different name.
well, the devil made me do it the first time
the second time i done it on my own
lord, put a handle on a simple headed man
and help me leave that black rose alone.
— instrumental —
when the devil made that woman
lord, she threw the pattern away
she was built for speed with the tools you need
to make a new fool every day.
way down deep and dirty
on the darker side of shame
i caught a cane cuttin’ man with a bottle of gin
with a rose of a different name.
the devil made me do it the first time
the second time i done it on my own
lord, put a handle on a simple headed man
help me leave that black rose alone.
the devil made me do it the first time
the second time i done it on my own
lord, put a handle on a simple headed man
help me leave that black rose alone…
