English Country Garden
How many kinds of sweet flowers growIn an English country garden?I'll tell you now of some that I knowAnd those I miss you'll surely pardonDaffodils, heart's ease and floxMeadowsweet and lady smocksGentain, lupine and tall hollihocksRoses, foxgloves, snowdrops, forget-me-notsIn an English country garden(In an English country garden)How many insects come here and goThrough our English country garden?I'll tell you now of some that I knowAnd those I miss you'll surely pardonFireflies, moths and beesSpiders climbing in the treesButterflies that sway on the cool gentle breezeTheir are snakes, ants that stingAnd creeping thingsIn an English country garden(In an English country garden)How many songbirds fly to and froThrough our English country garden?I'll tell you now of some that I knowSongtexteAnd those I miss you'll surely pardonBobolink, cuckoo and quailTanager and cardinalBluebird, lark, thrush and nightingaleThere is joy in the springWhen the birds begin to singIn an English country garden(In an English country garden)Robin (Robin, robin)Don't forget the robin (Don't forget the robin)Robin (Robin, robin)Don't forget the robin(Whistle........FADE) Aus Songtexte Mania
