01:
Just like the ramblin' roses
Round the porch in summer do
Tho all the world forget you
That's the way I'll cling to you
02:
Just like the sturdy ivy
On a castle's crumbling stone
I'll cling to you and love you
And you'll never be alone
03:
Just like the stars in Heaven
Cling around the Moon at nite
I'll stay with you forever
Whether you are wrong or right
04:
Just like the perfume lingers
On a rose until it dies
I'll stay with you and guide you
With the love light in my eyes
05:
Just like an old song longing
On an exile's lonely breast
I'll stay with you & gladly help
To build a humble nest
06:
Just like the ramblin' roses
Round the porch in summer do
Tho skies are grey my sweetheart
I'll always stay with you
END
Historical Note:
This poem, probably not composed by Bonnie, was a favorite of Bonnie's and we can consider that Bonnie felt this poem as being her ''poetic wedding vow'' to her husband Roy Thornton. Bonnie wrote this poem as her fourth out of a collection of ten poems into her First National Bank Of Burkburnett Texas bank book while she was in the Kaufman County Jail in April May and June 1932. This poem, in Bonnie's mind, later became her ''vow'' to Clyde Barrow throughout their time on the run.
This poem has not been translated into any other language yet.
