[00:00:01] Written by：C. Grean/Coben

[00:00:04] Sweet violets

[00:00:07] Sweeter than all the roses

[00:00:11] Covered all over from head to toe

[00:00:15] Covered all over with Sweet violets

[00:00:21] There once was a farmer who took a young miss

[00:00:25] In back of the barn where he gave her a lecture

[00:00:29] On horses and chickens and eggs

[00:00:32] And told her that she had such beautiful manners

[00:00:36] That suited a girl of her charms

[00:00:39] A girl that he wanted to take in his

[00:00:42] Washing and ironing and then if she did

[00:00:46] They could get married and raise lots of

[00:00:49] Sweet violets

[00:00:53] Sweeter than all the roses

[00:00:57] Covered all over from head to toe

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

[00:01:07] The girl told the farmer that he'd better stop

[00:01:11] And she called her father and he called a taxi

[00:01:14] And got there before very long

[00:01:18] 'Cause someone was doin' his little girl

[00:01:21] Right for a change and so that's why he said

[00:01:24] If you marry her son you're better off single

[00:01:28] 'Cause it's always been my belief

[00:01:32] Marriage will bring a man nothing but

[00:01:35] Sweet violets

[00:01:39] Sweeter than all the roses

[00:01:43] Covered all over from head to toe

[00:01:47] Covered all over with sweet violets

[00:01:53] The farmer decided he'd wed anyway

[00:01:57] And started in planning for his wedding suit

[00:02:00] Which he purchased for only one buck

[00:02:03] But then he found out he was just out of money

[00:02:07] And so he got left in the lurch

[00:02:11] Standin' and waitin' in front of the

[00:02:14] End of the story which just goes to show

[00:02:18] All a girl wants from a man is his

[00:02:21] Sweet violets

[00:02:25] Sweeter than all the roses

[00:02:29] Covered all over from head to toe

[00:02:33] Covered all over with sweet violets
