Give My Love To Rose

Found him by the railroad track this morning

I could tell that he was nearly dead

I knelt down beside him and I listened

Just to hear the words the dying fellow said

He said, "They let me out of prison in Frisco

For ten long years I paid for what I'd done

Now I'm tryin' to get back to Louisiana

Just to see my Rose and get to know my son

Mister heres the bag with all my money

It wont last her long the way it goes

God bless you for finding me this mornin'

And don't forget to give my love to Rose"

"Give my love to rose please won't you mister

Give her all of my money

Tell her, 'buy some new clothes'

Tell my boy his daddy is so proud of him

And don't forget to give my love to Rose"

"Give my love to rose please wont you mister

Give her all of my money

Tell her, 'buy some new clothes'

Tell my boy his daddy is so proud of him

And don't forget to give my love to Rose"
