Mairead Carlin - Scarlet Ribbons lyrics

Artist: Mairead Carlin

album: Songbook


I peeked in to say goodnight
And then 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 a hundred
I will never know from where
Came those lovely scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for her hair
Scarlet ribbons for her hair...
