《Sweet Violets》歌词

[00:00:00] Sweet Violets (甜美的维奥莱特) - Arthur Godfrey/Jimmy Carroll/Spencer Odom

[00:00:07] Sweet Violets

[00:00:11] Sweeter than the roses

[00:00:15] Covered all over from head to toe

[00:00:18] Covered all over with sweet violets

[00:00:26] There once was a farmer who took a young miss

[00:00:29] In back of the barn where he gave her a lecture

[00:00:33] On horses and chickens and eggs

[00:00:36] And told her that she had such beautiful

[00:00:39] Manners that suited a girl of her charms

[00:00:43] A girl that he wanted to take in his

[00:00:46] Washing and ironing and then if she did

[00:00:49] They could get married and raise lots of

[00:00:52] Sweet violets

[00:00:56] Sweeter than the roses

[00:01:00] Covered all over from head to toe

[00:01:03] Covered all over with sweet violets

[00:01:11] The girl told the farmer that he'd better stop

[00:01:14] And she call her father and he called a

[00:01:17] Taxi and got there before very long

[00:01:21] 'Cause some one was doin' his little girl

[00:01:24] Right for a change and so that's why he said

[00:01:28] If you marry her son you're better off single

[00:01:31] 'Cause it's always been my belief

[00:01:35] Marriage will bring a man nothing but

[00:01:37] Sweet Violets

[00:01:41] Sweeter than the roses

[00:01:45] Covered all over from head to toe

[00:01:49] Covered all over with sweet violets

[00:01:56] The farmer decided he wed anyway

[00:02:00] And started in planning for his wedding

[00:02:03] Suit which he purchased for only one buck

[00:02:06] But then he found out he was just out of

[00:02:09] Money and so he got left in the lurch

[00:02:13] A standin' and waitin' in front of the

[00:02:16] End of the story which just goes to show

[00:02:20] All a girl wants from a man is his

[00:02:22] Sweet Violets

[00:02:27] Sweeter than the roses

[00:02:30] Covered all over from head to toe

[00:02:34] Covered all over with

[00:02:36] Covered all over with

[00:02:38] Covered all over with sweet violets
