The little green flower with the yellow on top   You told me the name but I soon forgot   I know roses and forget-me-nots what's   That little green flower with the yellow on top      We got married in a little white church   I had a big red rose on my shirt   You had some flowers but you gave them away   And the little green flower was bloomin' that day      It's that little green flower with the yellow on top   You told me the name but I soon forgot   I know roses and forget-me-nots what's   That little green flower with the yellow on top      Remember the night that I came home drunk   Stopped in the driveway got you a bunch   You got mad said they shouldn't be picked   They were there next morning when I woke up sick      It's that little green flower with the yellow on top   You told me the name but I soon forgot   I know roses and forget-me-nots what's   That little green flower with the yellow on top      It's been a long time since I gave you that ring   You often said I didn't know a bloomin' thing   But happy anniversary and look what I got   Some little green flowers with the yellow on top
