Little Girl In Bloom (Bob Harris Session)

[Verse 1]

Little girl in bloom, with happy heart you wipe aside

Any sadness, sorrow, or gloom

Tomorrow, you'll be a blushing bride

That loves her blushing groom

Little girl in bloom, you watch the men play cricket

From a window in your room, oh

You see the ball go from bat to wicket

Pass away the afternoon

[Refrain]

Little girl in bloom carries a secret

The child she carries in her womb

She feels somethin' sacred

She's gonna be a mammy soon

[Chorus]

When your daddy come home, don't tell him till alone

When your daddy comes back, go tell him the facts

Just relax and see how he's gonna react

[Verse 2]

Littlе girl in bloom, all the clouds will go driftin' by

So sing your lullabying tune

And evеry word is in your eyes

As you sit and softly croon

Little girl in bloom, your love it fills the air

With the scent of the sweetest, sweet perfume

You feel so good you just don't care

Your my little girl in bloom

[Refrain]

Little girl in bloom carries a secret

A child she's carryin' in her womb

She feels somethin' sacred

She's gonna be a mammy soon

[Chorus]

When your daddy come home, don't tell him till alone

When your daddy comes back, go tell him the facts

Just relax and see how he's gonna react
