sweet peas on the vine

about

this song is what began my love affair with the ukulele and later the baritone ukulele. it would take another few years to accept i was proficient enough to begin teaching others this happiest of all instruments.

lyrics

what would you say if I wandered up to you
kissed you on the cheek, said how do you do
you’re sweeter than the night air, lush as honey pie
no one compares, not sweet peas on the vine

o my dear I love you, I want you by my side
song of lark on wind, wee thrush on the line
won’t you say you love me, carry my heart home
seeing you is heaven, land of hearth and loam

tell me that you care for me, hold my hand alone
waltz me through the fields, whisper sweet love tomes
never ill or sad of heart, breath of honeybees
honeysuckle dance on blissful bended knee
