Daisy is darling, iris is sweet
Lily is lovely, blossoms a treat
Of all the sweethearts - a guy could meet
Well I finally chose an american beauty rose

Camelias tragic, she cant be mine
Magnolias magic, it makes maggie shine
Laurel will hug you, orchids divine
Still I finally chose an american beauty rose

Shes clingier than ivy, and shes zingier than black-eyed susan
And springier than mabel in june
Im daffy as a daffodil, its laughable the way I thrill
When roses are in bloom

Pansy is pretty, willow is tall
Violets kisses, tulips (two lips) recall (violets kiss is tulips recall)
How can I choose one, I love em all
Still I finally chose an american beauty rose
