No Roses |
| I was born in a flood tears |
| My parents much too late in years |
| And the last of the cold was mine one day |
| But they left me in a forgotten place |
| My daddy was once a good boy, but he got lost in the dust |
| Ain’t no roses on my grave |
| Put me in the cold cold ground |
| Meet me in the morning |
| And watch as the winter rain is falling |
| Ain’t no roses on my grave |
| Put me in the cold cold ground |
| Meet me in the morning |
| And watch as the winter rain is falling… down |
| I was born on a flooded plain |
| From a rusted shack to the world I came |
| And the water rose and the water veined |
| I spread my wings, my eyes a blaze |
| My daddy was once a good boy, but he got lost in the dust |
| Ain’t no roses on my grave |
| Put me in the cold cold ground |
| Meet me in the morning |
| And watch as the winter rain is falling… |
| Ain’t no roses on my grave |
| Put me in the cold cold ground |
| Meet me in the morning |
| And watch as the winter rain is falling… |
| Hold me down, hold me down |
| Beat me in the morning waves |
| So all my sins have all been washed away |
| Hold me down, hold me down |
| Beat me in the morning waves |
| So all my sins have all been washed away |
| I went down to the river to wash my sins away |
| But no water in that river and my tears fell down like rain |
| Now the waters rising up above a shack on the dirty plain |
| My family on the roof top, Lord, I can almost hear them sing |
| Ain’t no roses on my grave |
| Put me in the cold cold ground |
| Meet me in the morning |
| And watch as the winter rain is falling… |
| Ain’t no roses on my grave |
| Put me in the cold cold ground |
| Meet me in the morning |
| And watch as the winter rain is falling… |
| (Down to the river to wash my sins away) |
| Hold me down, hold me down |
| Beat my head under the waves |
| So all my sins have all been washed away |
| Hold me down, hold me down |
| Down beneath the deepest grave |
| Let that rain wash my sins away |
| Beat me in the morning waves |
| So all my sins have been washed away |
| Keep my head under the water |
| So all my sins have been washed away |
| Beat me in the morning waves |
| So all my sins have been washed away |
| Keep my head under the water |
| So all my sins have been washed away |
| (Down to the river to wash my sins away) |
| Down beneath the deepest grave |
| Let the rain wash my sins away |
| I was born in a flood of tears |
| My parents much too late in years |
| My daddy was once a good boy but he got lost in the dust |
