They Gmcall me The Wild CmRoGmse
But my Bname was Elisa DDay
Why they Gmcall me it I do not CmknGmow
For my Gmname was EFlisa GmDay
From the Gmfirst day I saw her I knew Bshe was the one
She Cmstared in my eyes and Dsmiled
For her Gmlips were the colour of the Broses
That Cmgrew down the river, all Dbloody and wild
When he Gmknocked on my door and Bentered the room
My Cmtrembling subsided in Dhis sure embrace
He would Gmbe my first man, and Bwith a careful hand
He Cmwiped at the tears that Dran down my face
They cGmall me The Wild RCmosGme
But my Bname was Elisa DDay
Why they Gmcall me it I do not CmknGmow
For my Gmname was EFlisa GmDay
On the Gmsecond day I brought her a Bflower
She was Cmmore beautiful than any Dwoman I'd seen
I Gmsaid, "Do you know where the Bwild roses grow
CmSo sweet and scarlet and Dfree?"
On the Gmsecond day he came with a Bsingle red rose
Said: "Will you Cmgive me your loss and your Dsorrow"
I Gmnodded my head, as I Blay on the bed
He said, "If I Cmshow you the roses, will you Dfollow?"
They Gmcall me The Wild CmRoGmse
But my Bname was Elisa DDay
Why they Gmcall me it I do not CmknGmow
For my Gmname was EFlisa GmDay
On the Gmthird day he took me to the Briver
He Cmshowed me the roses and we Dkissed
And the Gmlast thing I heard was a Bmuttered word
As Cmhe knelt above me with a Drock in his fist
On the Gmlast day I took her where the Bwild roses grow
And Cmshe lay on the bank, the wind Dlight as a thief
And I Gmkissed her goodbye, said, "All Bbeauty must die"
And Cmlent down and planted a rose Dbetween her teeth
They Gmcall me The Wild CmRoGmse
But my Bname was Elisa DDay
Why they Gmcall me it I do not CmknGmow
For my Gmname was EFlisa GmDay
My Gmname was EFlisa GmDay
For my Gmname was EFlisa GmDay
