Tulip Time
Picture a little Dutch boy, a little Dutch girl in Holland;
Picture a little windmill upopn a Dutch hill in Holland.
There's a yellow painted moon above them,
A Dutch moon,
Too much moon!
Guess what the little Dutch boy
The little Dutch girl are doing!
Just from the look of things
Would you say they were billing and cooing?
Well, if you would like to know exactly,
They're dreaming, just dreaming!
Dreaming, oh dream, oh dream, oh dream!
He said, 'This is tulie, tulie, tulie, tulie, tulip time!'.
She said, 'Yes, it's tulie, tulie, tulie, tulie, tulip time!'.
Then they talked about the weather,
But their heads were close together!
They agreed it's tulie, tulie, tulie, tulie, tulip time,
He said, 'Are you truly, truly, truly, truly, truly mine?'.
With a kissed she sighed 'For ever!' ;
You can hardly blame them,
You would do the same in tulie, tulie, tulie, tulie, tulip time, (scat)
He said, 'This is tulie, tulie, tulie , tulie, tulip time!'.
She said, 'Tahulie, tahulie, tahulie, tahulie, tulip time!'.
Then they talked, yes they talked about the weather, (scat)
Their heads were close together, together!
'If not for tulip time'
Said the little Dutch boy to the little Dutch girl,
'Our love, it would never be nothin' I could see! '.
For no, but no never, no never!
What, no never?
Ha-hardly ever!
Because it was tulie, tulie, tulip time,
Tulie, tulie , tulip time,
With a kiss she sighed for ever!';
He said to her,
She said to him,
'It's love in tulip time!'.
