Rose In Paradise - Waylon Jennings[00:00:00]
She was a flower for the takin' [00:00:11]
Her beauty cut just like a knife [00:00:16]
He was a banker from Macon [00:00:22]
Swore he'd love her all his life [00:00:27]
Bought her a mansion on a mountain[00:00:33]
With a formal garden and a lot a land [00:00:38]
But paradise became her prison [00:00:42]
That Georgia banker was a jealous man [00:00:48]
Every time he'd talk about her [00:00:54]
You could see the fire in his eyes [00:00:59]
He'd say [00:01:04]
"I would walk through Hell on Sunday [00:01:04]
To keep my Rose in Paradise "[00:01:10]
He hired a man to tend the garden [00:01:16]
Keep an eye on her while he was gone [00:01:21]
Some say they ran away together [00:01:26]
Some say that gardner left alone [00:01:32]
Now the banker is an old man [00:01:37]
That mansion's c**-ble-ing down [00:01:43]
He sits all day and stares at the garden [00:01:48]
Not a trace of her was ever found [00:01:52]
Every time he talks about her [00:01:59]
You can see the fire in his eyes [00:02:04]
He'd say "I would walk through Hell on Sunday [00:02:09]
To keep my Rose in Paradise "[00:02:15]
Now there's a rose out in the garden [00:02:20]
It's beauty cuts just like a knife [00:02:25]
They say that it even grows in the winter time [00:02:30]
And blooms in the dead of the night[00:02:36]
