Lyrics
0:14Will somebody wear me to the fair
0:18(to the morning sings a lonely flower)
0:21Will a lady pin me in her hair
0:25(Mmm hmm hmm)
0:27Will a child find me by a stream
0:31(daylight will give a sun-beam shower)
0:34Kiss my petals and weave me through a dream
0:40For all of these simple things and
0:42Much more a flower was born
0:46It blooms to spread love and
0:48Joy faith and hope to people forlorn
0:52Inside every man lives the seed of a flower
0:59If he looks within he finds beauty and power
1:17Ring all the bells sing and tell the people
1:20That be everywhere that the flower has come
1:23Light up the sky with your prayers of gladness
1:26And rejoice for the darkness is gone
1:29Throw off your fears let your heart beat freely
1:32At the sign that a new time is born
1:49Mabel Sadie Katie Lola roses
1:52(Mabel Sadie Katie Lola roses)
1:55Say mama nana ya uhn-hunh
1:59(Mmm hmm hmm)
2:01Lookin' for a Mabel Katie
2:05(looking for a Mabel Katie)
2:07Ooh Mabel Sadie Katie Lola roses
2:12(Mmm hmm hmm)
2:14For all of these simple things and
2:17Much more a flower was born
2:20It blooms to spread love and joy faith
2:23And hope to people forlorn
2:26Inside every man lives the seed of a flower
2:34If he looks within he finds beauty and power
Will somebody wear me to the fair (to the morning sings a lonely flower) Will a lady pin me in her hair (Mmm hmm hmm) Will a child find me by a stream (daylight will give a sun-beam shower) Kiss my petals and weave me through a dream For all of these simple things and Much more a flower was born It blooms to spread love and Joy faith and hope to people forlorn Inside every man lives the seed of a flower If he looks within he finds beauty and power Ring all the bells sing and tell the people That be everywhere that the flower has come Light up the sky with your prayers of gladness And rejoice for the darkness is gone Throw off your fears let your heart beat freely At the sign that a new time is born Mabel Sadie Katie Lola roses (Mabel Sadie Katie Lola roses) Say mama nana ya uhn-hunh (Mmm hmm hmm) Lookin' for a Mabel Katie (looking for a Mabel Katie) Ooh Mabel Sadie Katie Lola roses (Mmm hmm hmm) For all of these simple things and Much more a flower was born It blooms to spread love and joy faith And hope to people forlorn Inside every man lives the seed of a flower If he looks within he finds beauty and power
