Just One Rose Will Do

When time has come for my leaving

When I bid you adieu

Don't spend your money for flowers

Just a rose will do

I'm goin' to a beautiful garden

At last, when life's work is through

Don't spend your money for flowers

Just a rose will do

Just have an old-fashioned preacher

Preach a sermon so true

I'll need no beautiful flowers

Just a rose will do

I'm goin' to a beautiful garden

At last, when life's work is through

Don't spend your money for flowers

Just a rose will do
