Did you ever smell a flower, ah that smelled so sweet

Ah till it would knock you off of your feet?

If you haven't, just follow me

And you soon will see

For I know of one, can't be beat



Why you are sweeter 'n any flower

That I ever seen

And I'm sure that you know

Ah, you're sweeter 'n any flower that grow

Why you are sweeter than a lily

And you're sweeter than a rose

And what I'm dyin' to know is

Where did they get that seed

I mean that seed of sweet pea?



I say you are sweeter 'n any flower

That I ever seen

I'm sure that you know

Ah, you're sweeter 'n any flower that grow

Why you are sweeter than a lily

Yes you're sweeter than a rose

And what I'm dyin' to know is

Where did they get that seed

I mean that seed of sweet pea?
