When the Sunflowers Bloom

~*~by Albert Bigelow Paine~*~

I've been off on a journey; I jes' got home today;
I traveled east, and' north, and south, an' every other way;
I seen a heap of country, an' cities on the boom,
But I want to be in Kansas when the
Sun-Flowers Bloom

You may talk about yer lilies, yer vi'lets and yer roses,
Yer asters, an yer jassymine, an' all the other posies;
I'll allow they all air beauties an' full er sweet perfume,
But there's none of them a patchin' to the
Sun-Flowers Bloom

Oh, it's nice among the mount'ins, but I sorter felt shet in;
'T'ud be nice upon the seashore if it wasn't for the din;
While the prairies air so quiet, an' there's allers lots of room,
Oh, it's nicer still in Kansas when the
Sun-Flowers Bloom

When all the sky above is jest ez blue ez blue kin be;
An' the prairies air a wavin' like a yaller driftin' sea,
Oh, it's there my soul goes sailing an' my heart is on the boom
In the gold fields of Kansas when the
Sun-Flowers Bloom
