MiscellaneousConvict And The Rose lyrics by George Morgan
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 me as a token
She sent it just to light my 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
Goodbye sweetheart, for in the morning
I'll meet my Maker in repose
And when I'll go at daylight's dawning
Against my heart they'll find the rose
