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 story that has no end
and I gave my love a baby that's no crying
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 crying?
A cherry when it's blooming
it has no stone
A chicken when it's pipping
it has no bone
and a story that I love you
it has no end
and a baby when it's sleeping
he's no crying
