Black Rose lyrics
Way down in Virginia
Amongst the tall grown sugar canes
Lived a simple man and a domineering hen
And a rose of a different name
The first time i fell lightly
I was standing in the drizzling rain
With a trembling hand and a bottle of gin
And a rose of a different name
Chorus:
The devil made me do it the first time
The second time i done it on my own
Lord put a handle on a simple headed man
And help me leave that black rose alone
When the devil made that woman
Lord she threw the pattern away
She were built for speed with the tools you need
To make a new fool every day
Way down deep and dirty
On the darker side of shame
I caught a cane cuttin' man with a bottle of gin
and a rose of a different name
Chorus(x2).
