Sleepin' where the roses grow


I have lost my brown eyed darling
I'm alone without a friend
I must wantder on without her
Til I reach my journey's end


Just one year ago we parted
Three months later then she died
I'm alone and oh so lonesome
In June she was to be my bride


For she's sleepin' sweetly sleepin'
Sleepin' where the roses grow
Sleepin' there to wait for Jesus
Where pain and sorrow comes no more


I'm alone with all my sorrows
Waiting for that blessed dawn
When the angels up in Heaven
Take me to her in that home


I'll be with her sweetlyu sleepin'
Sleepin' where the roses grow
Sleepin' there to wait for Jesus
Where pain and sorrow comes no more
