Desperate to find name and complete words to this WW2 song--words I know
are

I was born in Kansas
I was bred in Kansas
and when I get married
I"ll be wed in Kansas I'm a true blue gal
who promised she would wait - I'm a Sunflower from the sunflower state.

I'm a sunflower I'm a sunflower
and I know we'll never part
I'm a sunflower I'm his one flower
I'm the flower of his heart


Those are some of the words or close

Thank you
Kansas Girl

I know all of the above is true because I made it up myself.

Sunflower

I was born in Kansas,
I was 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 know we'll never part.
She's a sunflower, she's my one flower,
She's the flower of my heart.

Skies are fair in Kansas,
Clouds are rare in Kansas,
Never saw a place that could compare with Kansas.
So I'm goin' home to keep a weddin' date
With a sunflower from the sunflower state.

She's a sunflower, she's my sunflower
And I know we'll never part.
She's a sunflower, she's my one flower,
She's the flower of my heart.

Troubles end in Kansas,
Folks unbend in Kansas,
Everyone you 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 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 the stars are bluer
And the gals are sweeter
And their hearts are truer,
And I'm here to state
There's one who's really great
She's a sunflower from the sunflower state.

She's a sunflower, she's my sunflower
And I know we'll never part.
She's a sunflower, she's my one flower,
She's the flower of my heart.

Cheers,

TD

You know I could whistle up an old tune, babe
That your memory just might recall
And I could rustle up some reminise
'Bout the good old days and all
from Harry Chapin's "If My Mary Were Here"
