Author/Artist/Singer: Hank Snow
Music Title/Track: The Convict And The Rose
Theme ID: 4077
Album: N/A


Within my prison cell so dreary

I sit alone with achin' heart

I'm dreamin' of my little darlin'

From her forever, I must part



The rose she sent me as a token

She sent it just to lighten my gloom

And tell me that her heart was broken

And cheer me before I meet my doom



She wrote I picked it from the garden,

Where once we wandered side by side.

Now you hold no hope of pardon,

And I can never be your bride.



The judge would not believe my story

The jury said I had to pay

And with the rose in all its glory

"Not guilty" was 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 dawnin'

Against my heart they'll find this rose



Within my prison cell so dreary

I sit alone with achin' heart

I'm dreamin' of my little darlin'

From her forever, I must part
