Lyrics

There is a flower

Within my heart,

Daisy, Daisy!

Planted one day

By a glancing dart,

Planted by Daisy Bell!

Whether she loves me

Or loves me not,

Sometimes it's hard to tell,

Yet I am longing to share the lot

Of beautiful Daisy Bell!


Daisy, Daisy,

Give me your answer do!

I'm half crazy,

All for the love of you!

It won't be a stylish marriage,

I can't afford a carriage

But you'll look sweet upon the seat

Of a bicycle built for two.


We will go 'tandem'

As man and wife,

Daisy, Daisy!

"Ped'ling" away

Down the road of life,

I and my Daisy Bell!

When the road's dark

We can both despise

P'licemen and "lamps" as well,

There are "bright lights"

In the dazzling eyes

Of beautiful Daisy Bell!


Daisy, Daisy,

Give me your answer do!

I'm half crazy,

All for the love of you!

It won't be a stylish marriage,

I can't afford a carriage

But you'll look sweet upon the seat

Of a bicycle built for two.


I will stand by you

In "wheel" or woe,

Daisy, Daisy!

You'll be the bell(e)

Which I'll ring you know,

Sweet little Daisy Bell!

You'll take the "lead"

In each "trip" we take,

Then if I don't do well,

I will permit you to

Use the brake,

My beautiful Daisy Bell!
