A Brown Girl Dead

WITH two white roses on her breasts,White candles at head and feet,Dark Madonna of the grave she rests;Lord Death has found her sweet.Her mother pawned her wedding ringTo lay her out in white;She’d be so proud she’d dance and singTo see herself tonight.

WITH two white roses on her breasts,

WITH two white roses on her breasts,

White candles at head and feet,

Dark Madonna of the grave she rests;

Lord Death has found her sweet.

Her mother pawned her wedding ringTo lay her out in white;She’d be so proud she’d dance and singTo see herself tonight.

Her mother pawned her wedding ring

To lay her out in white;

She’d be so proud she’d dance and sing

To see herself tonight.
