Ruben Uwe has already explained how to get it in text form; however, if you are curious about its original format in R then its actually stored in iris.R as R source code which you can view at: https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/src/library/datasets/data/iris.R (or download the entire R source and get it from there). The iris.R in the website and the iris.R i get from dump(iris,file=iris.R) from R 2.1.0 W XP are different (the file from dump() describes the factors using structure(as.integer(c()),.Label=c(),class=factor) whereas the file in the website uses gl=(,,label=c()), but the difference did not matter. I wanted to emulate the file format in a txt *.R file with my own data and i could do it with the most helpful advice by you and Uwe. Thank you!

It is a special binary file in package datasets in the binary distribution. Just dump() or write.table() on the data to get a text representation of the data.
