English Country Garden Lyrics

How many kinds of sweet flowers grow
In an English country garden?
We'll tell you now of some that we know,
Those we miss you'll surely pardon.
Daffodils, Heart's Ease and Flox,
Meadowsweet and Lady Smocks,
Gentain, Lupine and tall Hollihocks.
Roses, Foxgloves,Snowdrops, blue forget-me-nots,
In an English country garden.

How many insects come here and go
In an English country garden?
We'll tell you now of some that we know,
Those we miss you'll surely pardon.
Fireflies, Moths, Gnats and Bees,
Spiders climbing in the trees,
Butterflies drift in the gentle breeze,
There are snakes, Ants that sting
And other creepy things,
In an English country garden.

How many songbirds fly to and fro
In an English country garden?
We'll tell you now of some that we know,
Those we miss you'll surely pardon.
Bobolink, Cuckoo and Quail,
Tanager and Cardinal,
Bluebird, Lark, Thrush and Nightingale,
There is joy in the spring
When the birds begin to sing,
In an English country garden.

How many kinds of sweet flowers grow
In an English country garden?
We'll tell you now of some that we know,
Those we miss you'll surely pardon.
Daffodils, Heart's Ease and Flox,
Meadowsweet and Lady Smocks,
Gentain, Lupine and tall Hollihocks.
Roses, Foxgloves,Snowdrops, blue forget-me-nots,
In an English country garden.

English country garden.
