Riddle Song (I Gave My Love A Cherry)
I gave my love a cherry that had not stone
I gave my love a chicken that had no bone
I told my love a story that had no end
I gave my love a baby that's no cryin'
How can there be a cherry that has no stone?
How can there be a chicken that has no bone?
How can there be a story that has no end?
How can there be a baby that's no cryin'?
A cherry when it's blooming, it has no stone
A chichen when it's pippin', it has no bone
The story that I love you, it has no end
A baby when it's sleeping, it's no cryin'
