Would like correct words and title please

My dad born in 1917 had to sing this song to pass his classes in grade school.Down in the valley the pansies are blooming close by the gently flowing stream. Kissed by the moonbeams and fanned by the zephyrs. All thru the night they sleep and dream. But when the morning Bringeth the sunlight Gladly they waken for the day. Giving a welcome to all that is golden kissing the stream let on its way. +…I would like to know title and year please

song/ "Lucky Lindie"

when I was a teen my father me some old 78s that my mother threw away. These are the only ones I can remember the titles to

Vernon Dalhart's 1927 song "Lucky Lindy" was a tribute to the aviator Charles Lindbergh. Later events such as his child's kidnapping, his enthusiasm for Eugenics and his pro-German stance before Pearl Harbor made him seem less Lucky.

We go dancing in the park

My dad used to sing this song to me, and I can't find the name of it or the lyrics on-line. It went like this "We go dancing in the park is nice. Is nice. You like. I like. I like it to."

It seemed like the singer/lyricist spoke English as a second language and my dad would sing it with an accent. He came from a Polish immigrant family in Chicago.

Do you know this song?

#4 Tell Me Pretty Maiden

According to Joel Whitburn, this recording features Byron G Harlan, Frank C Stanley, Joe Belmont and the Folorodora Girls.

You will notice that it is also listed in other sources (from different countries), they give the entry we have.

Most music from before about 1940 has a range of different ways the artists can be assigned, we try and ensure consistency rather than worry about exactly matching a single source.

JUST A ROSE IN A GARDEN OF WEEDS

I'm looking for the the lyrics and melody to "JUST A ROSE IN A GARDEN OF WEEDS" No one believes me that there is an old song out there with this title

We think that the song is the one listed here as "Garden of Weeds". Which was a minor hit for Paul Whiteman in 1935. You could have found it by searching for "Garden of Weeds" in the search box at the top of this page.

We, of course, do not have any lyrics here.
