If I Had A Ribbon Bow

If I Had a Ribbon Bow - Odetta

If I had a ribbon bow to bind my hair

If I had a fancy sash

My love would think me fair

He would goes to frankfurt

A loggin' on the rise

He'd bring me back with his own hands

A very pretty prize

If I had a ribbon bow to bind my hair

If I had a fancy sash

My love think me fair

If I was like a city girl

And fair with smart

Not a lad in all these parts

Would know my heart

And then I'd live in frankfurt

Where all the lovers go

I'd lark about them settlements

A wearing foreign clothes

If I had a ribbon bow to bind my hair

If I had a fancy sash
