Just A Ribbon

He gave to me a silver ring

To wear upon my hand

But I turned away

And he heard me saying

Oh, he doesn't, he doesn't understand

I don't need riches to make me care

Just a ribbon for my hair

He gave to me two golden hearts

To wear upon my ears

But I turned from him

So he could not see

My eyes, my eyes were filled with tears

I don't need riches to make me care

Just a ribbon for my hair

He tought I was unhappy

But he could not fight no more

So he bought me just a ribbon

For a penny at the store

He bought me just a ribbon blue

To wear in my hair

Then I pressed my lips

To his fingerstips

Saying Now, now I know you care

I don't need riches to make me care

Just a ribbon for my hair

I don't need riches to make me care
