When You Wore A Tulip - Firehouse Five Plus Two

I met you in a garden in an old Kentucky town

The sun was shining down

You wore a gingham gown

I kissed you as I placed a yellow tulip in your hair

Upon my coat you pinned a rose so rare

Time has not changed your loveliness

You’re just as sweet to me

I love you yet, I can’t forget the days that used to be

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 then julep when you wore that tulip

And I wore a big red rose

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 then julep when you wore that tulip

And I wore a big red rose
