Give Me Roses While I Live - The Carter Family

Written by：A.P. Carter

Wonderful things of folks are said

When they have passed away

Roses adorn their narrow bed

Over the sleeping clay

Give me the roses while I live

Trying to cheer me on

Useless are flowers that you give

After the soul has gone

Let us not wait to do good deeds

Till they have passed away

Now is the time to sow good seeds

While here on earth we stay

Give me the roses while I live

Trying to cheer me on

Useless are flowers that you give

After the soul has gone

Kind words are useless when folks lie

Cold in a narrow bed

Don't wait till death to speak kind words

Now should the words be said

Give me the roses while I live

Trying to cheer me on

Useless are flowers that you give

After the soul has gone

Give me the roses while I live

Don't wait until I die

To spread the roses over my grave

To see as you pass it by

Give me the roses while I live

Trying to cheer me on

Useless are flowers that you give

After the soul has gone
