Cline, Patsy - A Poor Man's Roses (Or A Rich Man's Gold) Lyrics






I must make up my mind today
What to have, what to hold
A poor man's roses
Or a rich man's gold

One's as wealthy as a king in a palace
Tho' he's callous and cold
He may learn to give his heart for love
Instead of buyin' it with gold

Then the poor man's roses
And the thrill when we kiss
Will be memories of paradise
That I'll never miss

And yet the hand that brings the rose tonight
Is the hand I will hold
For the rose of love means more to me
More than any rich man's gold

[Instrumental]

Then the poor man's roses
And the thrill when we kiss
Will be memories of paradise
That I'll never miss

And yet the hand that brings the rose tonight
Is the hand I will hold
For the rose of love means more to me
More than any rich man's gold...

    It's 4:27 am, and I have been up for a little more than an hour. I come to YouTube and I go on these musical journeys. I get excited when my journey takes me to music that I haven't listened to for a long time. I love this Era of pure country music!

  2. C.... T....

    This is pretty awesome. Been listening to Patty and Marty Robbins the last couple days. Hadn't heart this one, I'm glad I found it.

  9. C.... P....

    When I hear her music I picture myself in this ball room Ladies in full gowns and men in Suits dressed to the nine. Dancing and smiling and enjoy a life that we in today's age will never be able to enjoy. Why because back then the news and politics did not control us only the music did. Please lets get back to the days when music was perfection and people danced in gowns and tux's or suits dressed to the nine.

  10. M.... E....

    Omg.... Its not about look, though she was beautiful with amazing voice

  11. P.... B....

    Beautiful rendition...Patsy's voice was so unique and expressive

    animegamer 101 this song is heart stoping wait oh shit it was checkmate from the star... *explodes*

  14. J.... M....

    This was the b side of walkin after midnight--which she hated. She greatly preferred this long forgotten song so she did not have a good feel for which songs would be hits. She also hated crazy--and was very disrespectful to Willy Nelson refusing to even meet him and he had to sit out in the car while they discussed recording his song. This song poor mans roses was on the b side of walkin after midnight since she demanded it. Its a good song and well sung but simply not the effect of walkin after midnight or "crazy".. or "fall to pieces"

  15. S.... H....

    damn this is heart stopping
    oh n- *explodes*

    The people who voted thumbs down on this song must be the same idiots who think RAP and heavy metal is "music".

    Why is there a discussion of how pretty Patsy was? She was absolutely gorgeous. I'd take her over any woman in the world.

    P.... M....

    Conway twitty

    P.... M....

    I agree 100%

    P.... M....

    To this day, people are so concerned about "looks." Kinda explains itself when you consider the following Arianna Grande and others have. Shallow--not talented.

    Atta Girl Patsy,
    You tell Em'!

  47. M.... M....

    She was very good looking. I dont see how people can say she wasn't. She certainly was better looking than Rosemary Clooney.

    M.... M....

    M.... M....

    Meade Music yes I agree she.s beauitful inside and out thru 50.s til 60.s

    M.... M....

    Every one holds their own in outer image. Don't judge, please.

    M.... M....

    I know you posted this comment 5 years ago, but I agree wholeheartedly! I will never ever understand how everyone didn't think that she was one of the most beautiful woman in the world!! She had such an amazing body and such a beautiful baby face :))

  48. T.... (....

    Hunter X Hunter Netero ...

  49. J.... G....

    You will never find another country singer who can sing like her!

  50. L.... S....

    Do you own this place this place?

  51. M.... P....

    Wonderful sentiment--and wonderfully sentimental--it's pure Patsy, an echo of a bygone era that lives on in song.

  52. E.... B....

    Patsy Cline - A Poor Man's Roses It's also nice to see you are using proper capitalization, witch some are not doing in their titles, so it looks terrible, & the poor singer(s), friends, relatives, fans, see that. ugh! e

  53. E.... B....

    Thanks for taking your time to upload. Patsy Cline has always been a favorite of mine, especially Patsy’s ‘Crazy’ song, witch I sang on stage (not saying it was good, but some liked it–but I had fun 2), one night at the Engine Room Bar/Pub in Truro, Nova Scotia, Canada (a great place to eat, esp. their Spinach Salad [but I liked it served better in a taco bowl...ya have to take the time to make a good presentation–but, it is an addictive salad], and they serve hot tea in a pot too). FL now

  54. C.... H....

    I think she was beautiful even after.

  55. R.... L....

    I Love The Message of this song

  56. D.... T....

    Patsy was not the greatest looking woman in her day, but she had a nice set of hooters. Turn the lights down low and lookout, mama.

    D.... T....

    Dwight Turner humans like you are really far worse then ants

  57. c.... ....

    i love her and this song has a very special meaning to me

  58. R.... B....

    patsyclinefan1 thanks for the song and clip, love her music

  59. j.... j....

    @louisemusiclover give over!!we all know her story..its about the voice and what suited that best..the soft love songs were the best for her tone of voice xx

  60. M.... C....

    This has always been my outlook, but it's hard to get by in this world without adequate money. So I say have enough money for your needs and a bit extra. Great wealth does not bring happiness, especially if there is a lack of love.

  61. L.... ....

    Congrats Patsyclinefan1
    Youtube has chosen this beautiful song to be featured !
    God Bless

  62. L.... ....

    Such a beautiful song i think from the Patsy sung this song that the lyrics meant alot to her personally, she couldn't be brought or fooled into love by a man's wealth, being a rich man meant nothing to her..... i think this song had to be one of her own favourites i know it is one of mine !
    5 stars *****
