(Roses are red my love…do do do do)
A long, long time ago,
On graduation Day
You handed me you book,
I signed this way:
Roses are red my love, Violets are blue
Sugar is sweet my love, but not a sweet as you.
We dated through High School,
And when the big day came,
I wrote in your book,
Next to my name:
Roses are red my love, Violets are blue
Sugar is sweet my love, but not a sweet as you.
Then I went far away,
And you found someone new,
I read your letter dear,
And I wrote back to you:
Roses are red my love, Violets are blue
Sugar is sweet my love, but Luck may god bless you.
Is that your little girl?
She looks a lot like you,
Someday, some boy will write,
In her book too:
Roses are red my love, Violets are blue
Sugar is sweet my love, but not as sweet as you.
(Roses are red…..)
