Scarlet Ribbons (For the Hair)

Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
I peeked in to say goodnight And I heard my child in prayer And she prayed for scarlet ribbons Lovely ribbons for her hair All the stars were closed and shuttered All the streets were dark and bare In our town of scarlet ribbons Not one ribbon for her hair Through the night my heart was aching Just before the dawn was breaking On her bed in gay profusion Lovely ribbons lying there Lovely ribbons Scarlet 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
