Within my prison cell so dreary[00:00:06]
Alone I sit with aching heart[00:00:13]
I'm thinking of my lonely darling[00:00:19]
From her forever I must part[00:00:25]
A rose she sent me as a token[00:00:32]
She sent it just to light my gloom[00:00:38]
To tell me that her heart is broken[00:00:44]
To cheer me fore I meet my doom[00:00:50]
She wrote I took it from the garden[00:00:56]
Where once we wandered side by side[00:01:02]
But now you hold no hope of pardon[00:01:09]
And I can never be your bride[00:01:15]
The judge would not believe my story[00:01:33]
The jury said I had to pay[00:01:40]
But to the rose in all its glory[00:01:46]
Not guilty's all that I can say[00:01:52]
Goodbye sweetheart for in the morning[00:01:58]
I'll meet my maker in repose[00:02:04]
And when I'll go at daylight's dawning[00:02:10]
Against my heart they'll find this rose[00:02:16]
