ralph stanley - daddy's rose by ralph stanley lyrics
many years have p-ssed, i’m sorry to say
since i’ve been to visit my daddy’s grave
when the telephone rang, i heard sister say
green briars are growing on our daddy’s grave
i went to the place where my daddy laid
and saw the green briar growing up through the clay
so i took me a spade and i took me a hoe
cleared away the green briar, planted daddy a rose
in life dad’s a briar and mom’s are the rose
but in death there’s no difference god only knows
sometimes at midnight when the cold wind blows
i think of the graveyard and my daddy’s rose
i went to place where my daddy laid
and saw the green briar growing up through the clay
so i took me a spade and i took me a hoe
cleared away the green briar, planted daddy a rose
i long for the spring time when the rose will bloom
and cast it’s shadows on my daddy’s tomb
so listen good people to these words i say
keep the green briars off of your daddy’s grave
i went to the place where my daddy laid
and saw the green briars growing up through the clay
so i took me a spade and i took me a hoe
cleared away the green briar, planted daddy a rose
