Flowers for My Baby

I’ve journeyed near and far

Driving in my car

To find some flowers for my Baby.

In the wild places they hide

Way up on the hillside

Beautiful flowers for my Baby.

Here’s one I know that she’ll love

Others, I’m not sure of

But they’re all flowers for my Baby

All colors bright and true

Yellow, Red, and Blue

Beautiful flowers for my Baby.

The flowers grow free

For everyone to see.

Wouldn’t you agree?

There’s wisdom that flows

From the meanest flower that blows

No matter where it grows.

Way up yonder I see

On private property

Some pretty flowers for my Baby.

Running through your backyard

Past the security guard

To pick some flowers for my Baby.

There’s no time to wait

There’s no risk that’s too great

To find some flowers for my Baby.

No, don’t castigate me

Don’t incarcerate me!

I just want some flowers for my Baby.

I’ll put ‘em in a big vase

Wait for the look on her face

To see the flowers for my Baby.

I know it’s all worthwhile

When I see her smile

At all the flowers for my Baby.
