rose in paradise

Singer:jennings, waylon

she was a flower for the takin'

her beauty cut just like a knife. he was a banker from macon

swore he'd love her all his life. bought her a mansion on a mountain

with a formal garden and a lot a land. but paradise became her prison

that georgia banker was a jealous man!

every time he'd talk about her

you could see the fire in his eyes. he'd say

i would walk through hell on sunday
