Verse 1:
Way downE in Virginia A
Amongst tEhe tall grown sugar canes B
Lived a sEimple man and a domineeriAng hen
And a rose of Ba different name E
Verse 2:
The firstE time i fell lightly A
I was stanEding in the drizzling rain B
With a trEembling hand and a bottle oAf gin
And a rose of Ba different name E
Chorus:
The devilE made me do it the first tiAme
The second Etime i done it on my own B
Lord put Ea handle on a simple hAanded man
And help me Bleave that black rose alone E
Verse 3:
When theE devil made that womAan
Lord sheE threw the pattern away B
She was Ebuilt for speed with the tools yoAu need
To make a nBew fool every day E
Verse 4:
Way downE deep and dirty A
On the darkEer side of shame B
I caEught a cane cuttin' man with Aa bottle of gin
With a roBse of a different name E
Chorus(x2).
