Subject: songs with flower or plant names in them

Written By: flora on 09/21/06 at 10:52 pm

I'm looking for songs that include the names of flowers or plants in either the title or the lyrics

i.e. Tie a Yellow Ribbon; Scarborough Fair

Any others anyone can suggest would be much appreciated!

Daisy, Daisy

(On a bicycle built for two)



Daisy, Daisy
Give me your answer do
I'm half crazy all for the love of you
It won't be a stylish marriage
I can't afford a carriage
But you look sweet
Upon a seat
Of a bicycle built for two
