Roses love sunshine, violets love dew, Angels in heaven, know I love you
Know I love you dear, know I love you, Angels in heaven know I love you.
Build me a castle, forty feet high, So I can see him, as he rides by.
As he rides by love, as he rides by, So I can see him, as he rides by.
Write me a letter, send it by mail, Send it in care of Birmingham jail.
Birmingham jail dear, Birmingham jail, Send it in care of Birmingham jail.
