The Carter Family
I Found You Among the Roses
[Verse 1]
Once again, dear
It's rose time, it's June time
All the flowers, they bloom as of you
And the robin's sweet song is singing
As I walk here to greet you once more
A year has passed, dear, since we came here
This old love of ours to renew

[Chorus]
I found you among the roses
The day I come back to you
I found you among the roses
The day I come back to you
All my gladness was there in the garden so fair
Twas the happiest moment I knew

[Verse 2]
Your lips wеre the color of roses
I cravеd them as flowers crave the dew
It is there, dear, in your rose garden
Where I found you
I can 'member the kiss that you gave me
For your cheek, like a rose, flushed red
It was a kiss, dear, that meant two for me
For all the harsh words I have said
Red roses are blooming around me
I loved every one of them, too
It was there, dear, in your rose garden
Where I found you
[Verse 3]
Hurricane Annie ripped the ceiling off a church
Killed everyone inside
You turn on the telly and every other story
Is telling you somebody died
Sister killed her baby 'cause she couldn't afford to feed it
And we're sending the people to the moon
In September, my cousin tried reefer for the very first time
Now he's doing horse, it's June

[Outro]
It's June
It's June
Now he's doing horse
It's June
