When You Wore A Tulip Lyrics - Mitch Miller & The Gang

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
