Willie Nelson - Black Rose lyrics

Way down in Louisiana amongst the tall grown sugar canes Lived a simple man and a domineerin' hen and a rose of a different name The first time I fell lightly I was standing in the drizzlin' rain With a trembling hand and a bottle of gin and a rose of a different name The devil made me do it the first time the second time I done it on my own Lord put a handle on a simple handed man and help me leave that black rose alone When the devil made that woman Lord she threw the pattern away She was built for speed with the tools you need to make a new fool every day Way down deep and dirty on the darker side of shame You caught a cane cuttin' man with a bottle of gin with a rose of a different name The devil made me do it the first time... The devil made me do it the first time...
