The Riddle Song

I gave my love a cherry that had no stone

I gave my love a chicken that had no bone

I gave my love a baby with no crying

And told my love a story that had no end

How can there be a cherry that has no stone

How can there be a chicken that has no bone

How can there be a baby with no crying

How can there be a story that has no end

A cherry when it's blooming it has no stone

A chicken when it's pipping, it has no bone

A baby when it's sleeping has no crying

And when I say I love you, it has no end

I gave my love a cherry that had no stone

I gave my love a chicken that had no bone

I gave my love a baby with no crying

And told my love a story that had no end
