Give Me The Roses While I Live - Scott C. Miller (The Carter Family)

This Old-Time Bluegrass Gospel was song by James Rowe and R.H. Cornelius and recorded by a number of other's. I don't know who composed it but it was in early 1900's.

Thanks Jake. I just watched yours and it very nice. Not many folks sing this song anylonger so I guess it's up to us to keep it alive.

Great job. I love that old song, and I like the way you do it. My remembrance is of the Chuckwagon Gang singing it in the '50s and '60s.

I don't believe I have heard this if I have it has been a really long time. I found U thru Ridger1978. Keep up the good work. I think that U R playing a twelve string guitar. I think they are so pretty and U did a fine job.

Thanks and May God Bless U.

Hello Darlene-Thank you very much, yes this song is a very old one perhaps even older then I thought. I'm playing a Martin DCX1E 6 string guitar and the way I play it some times sounds like a 12 string. It's got a twang to it I suppose. Have a Lovely Day.
