Little Girl In Bloom (John Peel Session)

Lyrics

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 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, your love it fills the air With the scеnt of the sweetest, sweet perfume You feel so good you just don't care You're a little girl in bloom Little girl in bloom, all the clouds will go driftin' by So sing your lullabying tune And every word is in your eyes As you sit and softly croon [Refrain] Little girl in bloom, carries a secret The child she carries in her womb She feels somethin' sacred Gonna be a mammy soon [Chorus] When your daddy come home, don't tell him till alone When your daddy come back, go tell him the facts Just relax and see how he's gonna react [Instrumental Outro]
