If I Had A Ribbon Bow

If I had ribbon bow to tie my hair

And a gown of calico for me to wear

I'd surely get a sweetheart, a prince or a king

A palace home where I could have everything

If I had a ribbon bow to tie my hair

This old world could come and go, I wouldn't care

I'd stay up in my castle and I'd always wear

A ribbon bow so fine to tie my hair

All the live long day to the Lord above me

All I do is pray for someone to love me

If I had ribbon bow all nice and clean

I could be a princess or a fairy queen

Prince Charming then would court me, his love he would swear

If I had a ribbon bow to tie my hair

There's a story of a girl, a story seldom told

What she wanted from this world was not of gems or gold

Her wishes were quite plain as you will see

For often she would simply make this plea

All the live long day to the Lord above me

All I do is pray for someone to love me

If I had ribbon bow all nice and clean

I could be a princess or a fairy queen

Prince Charming then would court me, his love he would swear

If I had a ribbon bow

A pretty little ribbon bow

Prince Charming then would court me, his love he would swear

If I had a ribbon bow to tie my hair
