Roses Are Red lyrics

(Roses are red, my love

Doo doo doo 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 boy?

He looks a lot like you

Someday some girl will write

In his book, too:

"Roses are red, my love

Violets are blue

Sugar is sweet, my love

But not as sweet as you"

(Roses are red)
