| Mr. John Lee knew about your family |
| You came when I was lonesome |
| In the fairest of the spring |
| But I did not care for your wedding ring |
| But I did care for Marie |
| Farewell, my sweet |
| Bowled you off and took me |
| How my hair was a raven |
| And my eyes were shining bright |
| But I did not love you quite as well |
| As your darling loving wife |
| But every time that you see |
| Your Velveteen Rose |
| Then think of how you once called me |
| Your Velveteen Rose |
| Mr. John Lee |
| 'Twas an act that you told me |
| The burning thoughts you harbored me |
| The sheriff found your sweet Marie |
| Floating by the river weeds |
| In the fields of green |
| But every time that you see |
| Your Velveteen Rose |
| Then think of how you once called me |
| Your Velveteen Rose |
