The Wanderer and the Flower Girl

"Buy roses, Sir, buy roses!"

"What should I do with roses?"

"To your sweetheart bring them for a present."

"I have no sweetheart."

"And if you have no girl you love

When the roses bloom

And the heart's in gloom,

Then in your grave you would better be,

If no dear girl loves you tenderly."

"When the roses bloom, when the roses bloom,

If I have no girl I love,

When the roses bloom

And the heart's in gloom,

Then in my grave I would better be,

If no dear girl loves me tenderly."
