Roses are red:Bobby Vinton.
#1 in USA & #15 in UK in '62.
#1.
............
A long, long time ago,
On gradu..ation day,
You handed me your book,
I signed this way...
CHORUS: #l.
Roses are red, my love,
Violets are blue.
Sugar is sweet, my love,
But not as sweet as you.
#2.
We dated through high school,
And when the big day came.
I wrote into your book,
Next to my name...
CHORUS:#1.
#3.
Then I went far away,
And you found someone new.
I read your letter dear,
And I wrote back to you.
CHORUS:#2.
Roses are red, my love,
Violets are blue,
Sugar is sweet, my love,
good luck, may god bless you.
#4.
Is that your little girl?
She looks a lot like you.
Someday some boy will write.
In her book too.
CHORUS: #1
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
