Roses are bloomin', come back a-little darling
Come back, a-little darling and nevermore roam
Robins are singin' and the church bells are ringin'
Roses are bloomin', come home

The days have been long, dear, the nights have been weary
I miss you my darling since you went away
So, I keep on hopin' that you will remember
That you will remember old me

The bright moon was shinin' the night that we parted
I held you and a-kissed you and called you my own
Words sweet and tender that said that you loved me
Love me, my darling, but come home

Roses are bloomin', come back, a-little darling
Come back, a-little darling, wherever you roam
Robins are singin' and the church bells are ringing
Roses are bloomin', come home
