If I Had A Ribbon Bow

If I had ribbon bow to tie my hair And a gown of calico for me to wear I'd surely get a sweetheart, a prince or a king A palace home where I could have everything If I had a ribbon bow to tie my hair This old world could come and go, I wouldn't care I'd stay up in my castle and I'd always wear A ribbon bow so fine to tie my hair All the live long day to the Lord above me All I do is pray for someone to love me If I had ribbon bow all nice and clean I could be a princess or a fairy queen Prince Charming then would court me, his love he would swear If I had a ribbon bow to tie my hair There's a story of a girl, a story seldom told What she wanted from this world was not of gems or gold Her wishes were quite plain as you will see For often she would simply make this plea All the live long day to the Lord above me All I do is pray for someone to love me If I had ribbon bow all nice and clean I could be a princess or a fairy queen Prince Charming then would court me, his love he would swear If I had a ribbon bow A pretty little ribbon bow Prince Charming then would court me, his love he would swear If I had a ribbon bow to tie my hair
