When You Wore A Tulip

Percy Wenrich, Jack Mahoney.

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.
