Sweet Violets (Album) - Mitch Miller & The Gang
Written by：C. Grean/Coben
Sweet violets
Sweeter than all the roses
Covered all over from head to toe
Covered all over with sweet violets
There once was a farmer who took a young miss
In back of the barn where he gave her a lecture
On horses and chickens and eggs
And told her that she had such beautiful manners
That suited a girl of her charms
A girl that he wanted to take in his
Washing and ironing and then if she did
They could get married and raise lots of
Sweet violets
Sweeter than all the roses
Covered all over from head to toe
Covered all over with sweet violets
The girl told the farmer that he'd better stop
And she called her father and he called a taxi
And got there before very long
'Cause someone was doin' his little girl
Right for a change and so that's why he said
If you marry her son you're better off single
'Cause it's always been my belief
Marriage will bring a man nothing but
Sweet violets
Sweeter than all the roses
Covered all over from head to toe
Covered all over with sweet violets
The farmer decided he'd wed anyway
And started in planning for his wedding suit
Which he purchased for only one buck
But then he found out he was just out of money
And so he got left in the lurch
Standin' and waitin' in front of the
End of the story which just goes to show
All a girl wants from a man is his
Sweet violets
Sweeter than all the roses
Covered all over from head to toe
Covered all over with sweet violets
