| I want some red roses for a blue lady
|
| Mister florist take my order please
|
| We had a silly quarrel the other day
|
| I hope these pretty flowers chase her blues away
|
| Wrap up some red roses for a blue lady
|
| Send them to the sweetest gal in town
|
| (The sweetest gal in the town)
|
| And if they do the trick, I’ll hurry back to pick
|
| Your best white orchid for her wedding gown
|
| (She would be so lovely to see)
|
| (What a happy day that will be)
|
| Wrap up some red roses for a blue lady
|
| And send them to the sweetest gal in town
|
| And if they do the trick, I’ll hurry back to pick
|
| Your best white orchid for her wedding gown
|
| She’ll be so lovely
|
| On her wedding day |
