Convict And The Rose Video (MV)

Within my prison cell so dreary alone I sit with weary heart

I'm thinking of my lonely darling from her forever I must part



(A rose she sent him as a token she sent it just to light his gloom)

To tell me that her heart is broken to cheer me fore I meet my doom



She wrote I took it from the garden where once we wandered side by side

But now you hold no hope of pardon and I can never be your bride

[ vibes - guitar ]

(The judge would not believe his story the jury said he had to pay)

Now to the rose and all its glory not guilty is all that I can say



Goodbye sweetheart for in the morning I'll meet my Maker and repose

And when I'll go at daylight dawning against my heart they'll find your rose
