Lyrics
Another Man's Vine
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Bougainvillea's bloom and wind
Be careful mind the strangle vines
The roses climbing through the blind
Cause the sun is on the other side
The bees will find their honey
The sweetest everytime
Around a red rose
I see a red rose
Red rose blooming on another man's vine
Golden Willies gone to war
He left his young wife on the shore
Will she be steadfast everyday?
While Golden Willie is far away
Along the way her letters end
She never reads what Willie sends
I see a red rose
I smell a red rose
A red rose blooming on another man's vine
