Daisy is darling, Iris is sweet
  Lily is lovely, Blossom's a treat
  Of all the sweethearts - a guy could meet
  Well I finally chose an American beauty rose
  
  Camelia's tragic, she can't be mine
  Magnolia's magic, it makes Maggie shine
  Laurel will hug you, Orchid's divine
  Still I finally chose an American beauty rose
  
  She's clingier than Ivy, and she's zingier than black-eyed Susan
  And springier than Mabel in June
  I'm daffy as a daffodil, it's laughable the way I thrill
  When rosesa re in bloom
  
  Pansy is pretty, Willow is tall
  Violet's kisses, tulips (two lips) recall (Violet's kiss is Tulip's recall)
  How can I choose one, I love 'em all
  Still I finally chose an American beauty rose
