歌词
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
Yeah, 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
Help me leave that black rose alone
When the devil made that woman
Lord, I threw the pattern away
She was built for speed with the tools you need
To make a new fool every day
Now, way down deep and dirty
On the darker side of shame
You'll find this cane cuttin' man doing it again
With that rose of a different name
Yeah, 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
Help me leave that black rose alone
Yeah, 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
Help me leave that black rose alone
