Scarlet Ribbons
I peeked in to say goodnight and I heard my child in prayer Send for me some scarlet ribbons scarlet ribbons for my hair All the stores were closed and shuttered all the streets were dark and bare In our town no scarlet ribbons scarlet ribbons for her hair Through the night my heart was aching just before the dawn was breaking I peeked in and on her bed in gay profusion laying there Lovely ribbons scarlet ribbons scarlet ribbons for her hair If I live to be one hundred I will never know from where Came those lovely scarlet ribbons scarlet ribbons for her hair Aus Songtexte Mania
