Paragraph Lyric
I peeked in to say goodnightAnd I heard my child in prayer"And for me some scarlet ribbonsScarlet ribbons for my hair"All the stores were closed and shutteredAll the streets were dark and bareIn our town, no scarlet ribbonsScarlet ribbons for her hairThru the night my heart was achingJust before the dawn was breakingI peeped in and on her pillowOn her pillow lying thereLovely ribbons, scarlet ribbonsScarlet ribbons for her hairIf I live to be a hundredI will never know from whereCame those ribbons, scarlet ribbonsScarlet ribbons for her hair
