Cutie-fruitie
Apricots are tasty,
Apples have a crunch,
I’m the cutie-fruitie.
I’m the sweetest of the bunch.
Oranges are orange,
Blueberries are blue.
I’m a ruby-fruitie
And delicious through and through.
Blackberries in hedges
Pick them if you please.
I’m a cutie-beauty
And I dangle from the trees.
Have you guessed me yet?
Ripened by the sun,
I’m a juicy-fruitie
And I’m loved by everyone.
Queen of springtime blossom,
Cream of any crop.
Truly cutie-fruitie,
I’m the CHERRY on the top.
Apples have a crunch,
I’m the cutie-fruitie.
I’m the sweetest of the bunch.
Oranges are orange,
Blueberries are blue.
I’m a ruby-fruitie
And delicious through and through.
Blackberries in hedges
Pick them if you please.
I’m a cutie-beauty
And I dangle from the trees.
Have you guessed me yet?
Ripened by the sun,
I’m a juicy-fruitie
And I’m loved by everyone.
Queen of springtime blossom,
Cream of any crop.
Truly cutie-fruitie,
I’m the CHERRY on the top.
