I gave my love a cherry that had no stone
I gave my love a chicken that had no bone
I gave my love a ring that had no end
I gave my love a baby with 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 ring that has no end
How can there be a baby with no crying

A cherry when it´s blooming ain´t got no stone
A chicken when it´s pipping ain´t got no bone
A ring when it´s woven ain´t got no end
A baby when it´s sleeping, there´s no crying
