I Gave My Love A Cherry
I gave my love a cherry
That has no stone,
I gave my love a chicken
That has no bone,
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 baby
That’s no cryin’?
A cherry when it’s buddin’,
It has no stone.
A chicken in the eggshell
It has no bone.
A baby when it’s sleepin’
Is no cryin’.
