Kimberly Kelly - Black Rose

Way down in Virginia
Amongst the tall grown sugar canes
Lived a simple man and a dominicker hen
And a rose of a different name

Well, the first time I felt lightning
I was standing in the drizzling rain
With a trembling hand and a bottle of gin
And a rose of a different name

Well, 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 headed 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
