willie nelson - convict and the rose lyrics
Loading...
within my prison cell so dreary
alone i sit alone with aching heart
i’m dreaming of my little darling
from her forever i must part
the rose she sent me as a token
she sent it just to light my gloom
and tell me that her heart is broken
and cheer me before i meet my doom
the judge would not believe my story
the jury said i have to pay
and with the rose in all its glory
not guilty’s 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 dawning
against my heart they’ll find this rose
[ guitar ]
within my prison cell so dreary…
