Paint the flowers blue ...


That song that Hamilton sings is rather catchy and very well written. I wonder if that's a real song or if anyone knows all the lyrics to it.

It starts off:

Paint the flowers blue on the walls of my room
While I sing my song

My 4 year old son loves that song. We sing it almost every night as a lullaby.

Paper flowers bloom on the walls of my room when I sing my song
I can drive away the gloom, bring the sun into my room when I sing my song
When it's dark and there's no light in my lonely room at night
I just sing, and soon it seems
There's moonbeams spilling through my window and to you
I give my song

In "Hamilton the Ham" the line is "I give my song", and in another episode, the line is "I sing my song". I guess you can pick whichever you like best ;-)

I was trying to find out if this is an original song, or if Hamilton "covered" it. Does anyone know?

I honestly wouldn't care.
