(Sid Tepper - Roy C. Bennett)

I want some red roses for a blue lady
Mr Florist take my order please
We had a silly quarrel the other day
I hope these pretty flowers take the blues away.

I want some red roses for a blue lady
Send them to the sweetest gal in town
And if they do the trick I'll hurry back and pick
Your best white orchids for her wedding gown.
