Bobby Bare Lyrics for Song: Scarlet Ribbons
 Lyrics for Album: Singin' in the Kitchen (w. Family) [RCA Victor] [1974]
 
 
 
 17309>(Jack O. Segal - Evelyn Danzing)
 
 Jeannie Bare
 
 
 
 I peeked in to say goodnight
 
 And I heard my child in prayer
 
 Send to me some scarlet ribbons
 
 Scarlet ribbons for her 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 great 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.
 
 
 
 If I live to be a hundred
 
 I will never know from where
 
 Came those lovely scarlet ribbons
 
 Scarlet ribbons for her hair...
