The Kingston Trio - Scarlet Ribbons (For Her Hair) Lyrics

Lyrics Scarlet Ribbons (For Her Hair) - The Kingston Trio



I peeked in
To say goodnight
And I heard my child in prayer
"Please bring me some scarlet ribbons"
"Scarlet ribbons for my hair"
Searched all night
My heart was aching
Just before
The dawn was breaking
I peeked 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
In our town no scarlet ribbons, scarlet ribbons for her hair.
