PRETTY WHITE ROSE Sung by: Mrs. Sherman Rutherford Recorded in Batesville, AR 9/1/58 Click here to listen to the original recording That you gave me, And asked me to wear it for you, I have that rose still yet, And never shall forget To wear it as long as you are true. On a bright spring day In the early part of May, Two little sweethearts like you and me Strolled and told the story old Just as we always do. (Chorus) On the old stone we sit side by side, With the beautiful streams beneath our feet. We would whisper words of love As the sweet birds sang above. These words, they were low, soft and sweet. (Chorus) |
