Scarlet Ribbons Lyrics
I peeked in to say goodnight
And I heard my child in
Prayer please bring me
Some scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for my hair
Through the night my heart
Was achin' just before the dawn was breaking
I looked in and on her
Bed in gay profusion lying
There scarlet ribbons lovely
Ribbons scarlet ribbons for her hair
If I live to be a hundred I will never know from
Where came those ribbons lovely ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for her hair
