SHE BAKES ME BREAD

My Rose, she bakes me crusty bread

All fresh and warm and sweet

With butter from the milking-cow

Melting in its heat

My Rose, she sings me lulla-bys,

To help me fall asleep

When my mind is troubled by

Stress, anger or worry

I love her with all of my heart

And when my Rose is dead

I'll think of her and remember

When my Rose baked me bread
