Harry Belafonte "Scarlet Ribbons" paroles

Scarlet Ribbons

I peeked in to say goodnightWhen I heard my child in prayerAnd 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 ribbonsNot one ribbon for her hair

Through the night my heart was achingAnd just before the dawn was breakingI peeked in and on her bedIn gay profusion lying thereLovely ribbons, scarlet ribbonsScarlet ribbons for her hair

If I live to be a hundredI will never know from whereCame those lovely scarlet ribbonsScarlet ribbons for her hair
