When you wore a tu-lip,
4  -5   -5   5 -3* -5
a sweet yel-low tu-lip,
 5 -3* -3* -3 -3*  3   -2
and I wore a  big red rose. 
 3   -5* -5  -5*   3
When you ca-ressed me,
  -2*  -2   -5  5*   -5    -2
'twas then Heav-en blessed me, 
 3  -2   2    4  4  -5    4
what a bless-ing no one knows.
-2   -2   3    -3* -3*  
You made life cheer-y 
 4   -5    -5   5   -3* -5
when you called me dear-ie, 
  5    -3*  -3*  -3   -3*   5    -3
'twas down where the blue-grass grows, 
 -3  -3*   -3    3   -5  5*  -5 -5*
your lips were sweet-er than ju-lep, 
 -5   3   5    -4  5  -5
when you wore that tu-lip, 
 3 -3* -3  3 -3-3* 5   -3* 
and I wore a  big red rose.
