Give My Love To Rose
Johnny Cash
(Johnny Cash, SUN 279, 1957)
I found him by the railroad track this morning
I could see that he was nearly dead
I knelt down beside him and I listened to hear the words the dying fellow said
He said, "They let me out of prison out in Frisco
For ten long years I paid for what I'd done
I was trying to get back to Louisiana to see my Rose and get to know my son
Give my love to Rose, please, won't you Mister?
Take her all my money, tell her buy some pretty clothes
Tell my boy his daddy's so proud of him
And don't forget to give my love to Rose
Tell 'em I said thanks for waiting for me
Tell my boy to help his mom at home
Tell my Rose to try to find another
'Cause it ain't right that she should live alone
Mister, here's the bag with all my money
It won't last them long the way it goes
God bless you for finding me this morning
Please, don't forget to give my love to Rose
Give my love to Rose, please, won't you Mister?
Take her all my money, tell her buy some pretty clothes
Tell my boy his daddy's so proud of him
And don't forget to give my love to Rose
