《Rose In Paradise》歌词

[00:00:00] Rose In Paradise - Waylon Jennings

[00:00:11] She was a flower for the takin'

[00:00:17] Her beauty cut just like a knife

[00:00:22] He was a banker from Macon

[00:00:28] He swore he'd love her all a his life

[00:00:33] He bought her a mansion on the mountain

[00:00:38] With a formal garden and a lot a land

[00:00:43] But paradise became her prison

[00:00:49] That Georgia banker was a jealous man

[00:00:54] Every time he'd talk about her

[00:00:59] You could see the fire in his eyes

[00:01:04] He'd say "I would walk through hell on Sunday

[00:01:10] To keep my rose in paradise"

[00:01:16] He hired a man to tend the garden

[00:01:21] And keep an eye on her while he was gone

[00:01:26] Some say they ran away together

[00:01:32] Some say that gardener left alone

[00:01:38] Now the banker is an old man

[00:01:43] That mansion's crumbling down

[00:01:48] He sits all day and he stares at the garden

[00:01:53] Not a trace of her was ever found

[00:01:59] Every time he'd talks about her

[00:02:04] You could see the fire in his eyes

[00:02:09] He'd say "I would walk through hell on Sunday

[00:02:15] To keep my rose in paradise"

[00:02:21] Now there's a rose out in the garden

[00:02:26] It's beauty cuts just like a knife

[00:02:31] They say that it even grows in the winter time

[00:02:36] And blooms in the dead of the night
