Temple Shirley
Honeymoon (1947)
I Love Geraniums
Lyrics/Music Mort Greene/Leigh Harline
Some ladies love to get orchids
Or roses with stems a mile long
Some girls prefer a gardenia
Camelias might ring the gong
Or sometimes they like an old fashioned bouquet
A quaint little nosegay on Valentine's Day
But I must disagree
These species are not for me
I love geraniums
Bright, red geraniums
And ev'rytime I see one
I always think of you
I hate chrysafadums
Can't say chrysanthemums
I might as well just be one
If I can't be with you
A rose is red
A violet's blue
And I am only human
But I'll admit when I'm with you
You steal a little kiss and I start bloomin'
I love geraniums
Bright, red geraniums
And ev'rytime I see one
I always think of you
Without your love
Well, goodness knows
There's no two ways abott it
I'd be just like a ramblin' rose
And I'd go out and get my poor self potted
I love geraniums
Bright, red geraniums
But I don't love geraniums
As much as I love you
