The Carter Family - When the Roses Bloom in Dixieland lyrics

[Chorus] When the roses bloom in Dixieland I am coming back to you When the birds are singing music grand To the sweetest girl I ever knew I am saving up my money To buy a little cabin home for two When the roses bloom in Dixieland I am coming back to you [Verse 1] I just got a letter from the sunny south From my girl in Tennessee She said she loved me like she used to do And was waiting there for me I answered back her letter Though I am far away When the roses bloom in Dixieland I am coming home to stay [Chorus] [Verse 2] When I left my honey at the railroad train I said, honey, wait for me I'm going to make a lot of money up north Then it's me for old Tennessee When the roses bloom in Dixieland [Chorus]
