Wear a Red Rose

JOHN DUFFEY

When youget this letter dearest darling
I' ll be on the train heading home
My thoughts are only of you, love
While these many moons I've roamed

Meet me there down by the river
Where we met that summer night
If you still love me wear a red rose
If you don't then wear the white

Tell my mom and dear old daddy
That I want to see them too
This world and all of its pleasures
Can't take the place of home and you

* Refrain

I hope I'm still first in your heart, dear
Or is another there instead
When I meet you by the river
I hope the rose you wear is red
