Lyrics
"No Roses" by James Floyd Wilson
(chorus)
No Roses on my gravesite,
I want you to love me before I die.
No Daises on my tombstone.
I want you to love me while I'm alive.
(I)
We had a wonderful courtship.
We were so it love you and I.
And when I said only death will part us.
Honey I'm telling you I didn't lie.
(2)
You stuck with me through the good times and bad times,
lots of bad times, I realize.
And you bore me such beautiful children.
I'll not give up on our love without a fight.
(3)
Honey, I'm sorry for the trouble I've caused you.
But we can work it out if you'll just give it time.
I'm callin' on the Lord to help make our love to grow.
Will you stay with me? Baby, give me a sign.
(repeat chorus)
(repeat last line)
