Within my prison so dreary

I sit alone with achin heart

I'm dreamin of my little darlin

From her forever i must part

The rose she sent me as a token

She sent it just to lighten my gloom

And tell me that her heart was broken

And cheer me before i meet my doom

The judge would not believe my story

The jury said i had to pay

And where to the rose in all it's glory

Not guilty was all that i could say

Goodbye sweetheart for in the morning

To meet my maker i must go

And when i die at daylight's dawnin

Against my heart they'll find this rose

Within my prison so dreary

I sit alone with achin heart

I'm dreamin of my little darlin

From her forever i must part
