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[00:00:17]
He was a banker from Macon[00:00:22]
He swore he'd love her all a his life[00:00:28]
He bought her a mansion on the mountain[00:00:33]
With a formal garden and a lot a land[00:00:38]
But paradise became her prison[00:00:43]
That Georgia banker was a jealous man[00:00:49]
Every time he'd talk about her[00:00:54]
You could see the fire in his eyes[00:00:59]
He'd say "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]
And keep an eye on her while he was gone[00:01:21]
Some say they ran away together[00:01:26]
Some say that gardener left alone[00:01:32]
Now the banker is an old man[00:01:38]
That mansion's crumbling down[00:01:43]
He sits all day and he stares at the garden[00:01:48]
Not a trace of her was ever found[00:01:53]
Every time he'd talks about her[00:01:59]
You could 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[00:02:21]
It's beauty cuts just like a knife[00:02:26]
They say that it even grows in the winter time[00:02:31]
And blooms in the dead of the night[00:02:36]
