《Convict and the Rose》歌词

[00:00:00] Convict and the Rose - Hank Snow

[00:00:02] Written by：Betty Chapin/Robert King

[00:00:09] Within my prison cell so dreary

[00:00:16] Alone I sit with weary heart

[00:00:23] I'm thinking of my lonely darling

[00:00:30] From her forever I must part

[00:00:37] A rose she sent me as a token

[00:00:44] She sent it just to light his gloom

[00:00:51] To tell me that her heart was broken

[00:00:58] To cheer me fore I meet my doom

[00:01:06] She wrote I took it from the garden

[00:01:13] Where once we wandered side by side

[00:01:20] But now you hold no hope of pardon

[00:01:27] And I can never be your bride

[00:02:03] That judge would not believe my story

[00:02:10] The jury said we have to pay

[00:02:17] Now to the rose and all its glory

[00:02:24] Not guilty is all that I can say

[00:02:31] Goodbye sweetheart for in the morning

[00:02:38] I'll meet my maker and repose

[00:02:45] And when I go at daylight darling

[00:02:53] Against my heart they'll find your rose
