lyrics

Well diamonds are forever and enough gold will make you a king
And women are so beautiful when they dance and they sing
But all these things they are things that I can never really hold
They can all be taken away and to the highest bidder sold

I want them flowers to grow on the inside
In the garden of my soul
I don't want those cankers and weeds
To be the only things to show
I want them flowers to grow on the inside
In the garden of my soul
It's going to take a lot of love and sunshine
To get them flowers to grow

Mmmm
La da di
Mmmm
La da di


Well you look down your nose at me like I'm up here and I'm some kind of fool
While your throwing back another drink with your cynical smile thinking your so cool
Believing your in the know, who the hell are you trying to kid
You're the only one that doesn't seem to realize, you're whole life is one big skid

I want them flowers to grow on the inside
In the garden of my soul
I don't want those cankers and weeds
To be the only things to show
I want them flowers to grow on the inside
In the garden of my soul
It's going to take a lot of love and sunshine
To get them flowers to grow

Mmmm
La da di
Mmmm
La da di

Sweet baby big blue eyes, girl you're as pretty as a rose
Just don't ever end up in one of those places where anything goes
Whatever you do girl do it out of love, keep all your dreams alive
Sometimes they just need a little shove

I want them flowers to grow on the inside
In the garden of my soul
I don't want those cankers and weeds
To be the only things to show
I want them flowers to grow on the inside
In the garden of my soul
It's going to take a lot of love and sunshine
To get them flowers to grow

Mmmm
La da di
Mmmm
La da di
