Give Me Roses While I Live by The Carter Family
LYRICS:
Wonderful things of folks are said
When they have passed away
Roses adorn the narrow bed
Over the sleeping clay
Give me the roses while I live
Trying to cheer me on
Useless are flowers that you give
After the soul is gone
Kind words are useless when folks lie
Cold in a narrow bed
Don't wait till death to speak kind words
Now should the words be said
Let us not wait to do good deeds
Till they have passed away
Now is the time to sow good seeds
While here on earth we stay

I heard Adrian Rogers, a Baptist preacher now deceased himself, say this: "Dead noses smell no roses." How true!9 years ago

Very true = all you hear is good words when someone has passed away - means nothing to them as they can't hear it. 9 years ago

To a modern ear, the Carter Family at first may seem a bit "old" as we are accustomed to 21st Century recording tricks. But, as you listen carefully to the Carters, their songs get into your blood. You realize that modern singers are a fake, superficially perfect mountain stream replica set up in a shopping mall. The Carters are a real mountain stream, pure crystal clear water, with all the rough edges where the dirt natually crumbles away. I'll take the real mountain stream any day.11 years ago

This is a 'sermon in a song'. Bill Monroe always said that Bluegrass music could teach you the right way to live....he was right.13 years ago
