Baby, pin a rose on me
It's a heavy load, it's a trail of tears
Baby, pin a rose on me
You heard the bells, I heard the hammer falling
Baby, pin a rose on me
I tried to tell you he was no damn good
You saw a light, I saw a freight train coming
Baby, pin a rose on me
Baby, pin a rose on me
I tried to tell you he was no damn good
Baby, pin a rose on me
You saw a light, I saw a freight train coming
And it's a dead end line that drops you here
Baby, pin a rose on me
And it tears me up to see you brought back to him
When you don't want to have it but I long to give
You saw a light, I saw a freight train coming
Well look at you, knocking at my door
Baby, pin a rose on me
You heard the bells, I heard the hammer falling
He ran you down like I said he would
He ran you down like I said he would
You're always good for one more chance
It's a heavy load, it's a trail of tears
Baby, pin a rose on me
You heard bells, I heard the hammer falling
It's the same old sorry song and dance
Baby, pin a rose on me
I tried to tell you he was no damn good
He ran you down like I said he would
