When you wore a tulip,
A sweet yellow tulip,
And I wore a big red rose,
When you caressed me, 'twas then
Heaven blessed me,
What a blessing, no one knows,
You made life cheery,
When you called me dearie,
'Twas down where the blue grass grows,
Your lips were sweeter than julep,
When you wore that tulip,
And I wore a big red rose.
