Johnny Fedavo-Marty Robbins

Down in the little Mexican town of New Wavo There lived a maiden lovely as a rose Deep was the love of Lisa, the rose of New Wavo For Johnny Fedavo and he loved her too They made a vow that they'd always love each other For them, on other could be so true Storm clouds swept in the life of Johnny Fedavo The promise of Heaven lasted for just a day God needed someone to brighten his throne Lisa was taken and Johnny was left all alone That day in the little Mexican town of New Wavo Sadly, a village laid their rose away Johnny came home but no Lisa was there to meet him No arms to greet him or hold him tight Johnny prayed alone for God to hear it To take his spirit away that night The years passed by and no one saw Johnny Fedavo The children grew and people were gay once more One day they found him with hair snowy white The rose in his hand was his message to Lisa that night Down in the little Mexican town of New Wavo Two lovers at last their peace with God have found Deep was the love of Lisa, the rose of New Wavo For Johnny Fedavo and he loved her too There in the chapel shadows they both lay sleeping Their vows still keeping and both still true
