The Violet and a Rose

The Violet and a Rose -"Little“ Jimmy Dickens

A violet fell in love with a rose

And started it blushing

From its head to its toes

Then one day the rose was

Kissed by the dew

A new love was born

And the violet turned blue

Roses are red violets are blue

I'm sending red

Red roses to you

If you care to send

Some flowers to me

Then send me some violets

I'm blue as can be

I wanted my love

To bouquet with you

But just like the rose

You've proven untrue

A flower that's wild

They say has no home

And just like the violet

I'm left all alone

Roses are red

Violets are blue

I'm sending red

Red roses to you

If you care to send

Some flowers to me

Then send me some violets

I'm blue as can be
