There are flow'rs that are rich there are flow'rs that are rare

On the banks where the bright water flows

But the sweetest of all nature's flowers to bloom

Her smile was the sunshine so

And the heart of my beautiful rose was as true

As her tears like the dew sprinkled there.

In the dead.

In the bright month of june neath that old southern moon

At the altar each promise we'd close

But old fate played its part and soon broke the heart

Of my darling my blue river rose.

A vacation they told her twould be

When the leaves start to fall it is then we will call.

And you may return o'er the sea.

A year had passed on then the postman one morn

Brought a letter to me and it read

The rose that once bloomed in your garden of love

Has all whithered your darling is dead.
