Roses Are Red Lyrics - Patty Duke

(Roses are red, my love, doo-doo-da-doo) 

A long, long time ago 

On graduation day 

You handed me your book 

I signed this way 

Roses are red, my love 

Violets are blue 

Sugar is sweet, my love 

But not as sweet as you 

We dated through high school 

And when the big day came 

I wrote into your book 

Next to my name 

Roses are red, my love 

Violets are blue 

Sugar is sweet, my love 

But not as sweet as you (as sweet as you) 

Then I went far away 

And you found someone new 

I read your letter, dear 

And I wrote back to you 

Roses are red, my love 

Violets are blue 

Sugar is sweet, my love 

Good luck, may god bless you (may god bless you) 

Is that your little girl? 

She looks a lot like you 

Someday some boy will write 

In her book, too 

Roses are red, my love 

Violets are blue 

Sugar is sweet, my love 

But not as sweet as you (roses are red)
