She's a sunflower, she's my one
flower,
She's the flower of my heart.
I was born in Kansas, Iowa, bred
in Kansas,
And when I get married, I'll be
wed in Kansas
There's a true-blue gal who
promised she would wait,
She's a sunflower from the
Sunflower State.
She's a sunflower, she's my
sunflower,
And I'll know we'll never part,
She's a sunflower, she's my one
flower,
She's the flower of my heart.
<musical interlude>
Troubles end in Kansas, folks
unbend in Kansas,
Everyone you'll meet will be
your friend in Kansas,
And they'll all be there to help
me celebrate
With my sunflower from the
Sunflower State.
She's a sunflower, she's my
sunflower,
And I'll know we'll never part,
She's a sunflower, she's my one
flower,
She's the flower of my heart.
Oh the moon is brighter and
stars are bluer,
And the gals are sweeter and
their hearts are truer,
And I'm here to take, there's
one who's really great,
She's that sunflower from the
Sunflower State.
She's a sunflower, she's my
sunflower,
And I'm sure we'll never part,
She's a sunflower, she's my one
flower,
She's the flower of my heart.
