English Country Garden
Misc Traditional
There are various lyric versions to this song.These are the lyrics I usually use.
I have also included an irreverent verse at the end which was included in a later
version of this song!

How many gentle flowers grow in an English country garden
I'll tell you now of some of them I know and those I miss I'm sure you'll pardon
Daffodils hearts-ease and flocks meadow sweet and lilies stocks
Gentle lupins and tall hollyhocks
Roses fox-gloves snowdrops forget-me-knots in an English country garden

How many insects find their home in an English country garden
I'll tell you now of some of them I know, and those I miss I'm sure you'll pardon
Dragonflies moths and bees spiders falling from the trees
Butterflies sway in the mild gentle breeze
There are hedgehogs that roam and little garden gnomes in an English country garden

How many song-birds make their nest in an English country garden
I'll tell you now of some of them I know and those I miss I'm sure you'll pardon
Babbling coo-cooing doves cuckoos and the warbling thrush
Blue birds lark finch and the nightingale
We all smile in the spring when the birds all start to sing in an English country garden

Robin don't forget the robin 
Robin don't forget the robin

Irreverent verse and outro add if you wish!
Wet underfoot and the leaves are thick with soot in an English country garden
Newspapers torn and strewn across the lawn in an English country garden
Litter garbage in the yards little doggies' calling cards
One scraggy rosebud peering through the weeds
For they've all downed tools while they do their football pools in an English country garden
Market join the Common Market
Market join the Common Market
