From Morenci Arizona where the copper

mines glow

I could see Clifton in the canyon below

In Clifton lived Rosey we danced and we dined

On the money I made in the open pit mine

I loved my sweet Rosey and she loved me too

There was nothing for Rosey that I wouldn't do

Her hugs and her kisses they were something devine

Gave me reason for working the open pit mine

While I was out walking with my Rosey one day

We passed a store window with rings on display

I bought those she wanted how they really

did shine

With the money I scraped from that open

pit mine

Her love would bring heartbreak that

I would soon learn

Cause she would tontern me when

my back was turned

Rosey would go dancing and drink the red wine

While I worked like a slave in that open pit mine

One night I caught Rosey on her rendevous

She was hugging and kissing with somebody new

It was there that I shotg em while their arms

were entwined

Then I buried her deep in that open pit mine

I took a look at my future and what did I see

There was nothig but trouble a-waiting for me

But on the sun's next rising I'll be satisfied

Cause they'll find me there sleeping by my

sweet Rosey's side
