She's a sunflower,
She's my one flower,
She's the flower of my heart!
I was born in Kansa,
I was bred in Kansas,
And when I get married
I'll be wed in Kansas!
There's a true blue gal
Who promised she would wait,
She's a sunflower
>From the sunflower state!
She's a sunflower,
She's my sunflower,
And I know we'll never part!
She's a sunflower,
She's my one flower,
She's the flower of my heart!
Troubles end in Kansas,
Folks unbend in Kansas,
Every one you meet
Will be your friend in Kansas!
And they'll all be there
To help me celebrate
With my sunflower
>From the sunflower state!
She's a sunflower,
She's my sunflower,
And I know we'll never part!
She's a sunflower,
She's my one flower,
She's the flower of my heart!
Oh, the moon is brighter
And the stars are bluer,
And the gals are sweeter
And their hearts are truer!
And I'm here to state
There's one who's really great!
She's that sunflower
>From the sunflower state!
She's a sunflower,
She's my sunflower,
And I know we'll never part!
She's a sunflower,
She's my one flower,
She's the flower of my heart!
