I wanted to make a good impression on this date

So I stopped off and picked these out myself

But I hope you understand that this package in my hand

Is actually meant for someone else



These flowers ain't for you

They're for your momma

Later on I got something for you too

These flowers ain't for you

They're for you momma

To thank her for havin'

A good lookin' sweet young thing like you



You don't have to ask, I admit that in my past

I ain't been the type that mommas like

But this time what I need is you forever lovin' me

So I'm doing all I can to do things right



These flowers ain't for you

They're for your momma

Later on I got something for you too

These flowers ain't for you

They're for you momma

To thank her for havin'

A girl of my sweet dreams

A good lookin' sweet young thing like you



You mean so much to me

I'd do anything to get to you

I want your family

To all side up with me from the start

When I ask you for your heart



These flowers ain't for you

They're for your momma

Later on I got something for you too

These flowers ain't for you

They're for you momma

To thank her for havin'

A girl of my sweet dreams

A good lookin' sweet young thing like you

To thank her for havin'

A girl of my sweet dreams

A good lookin' heart stoppin' sweet young thing like you
