I bought my love a silver ring To wear upon her hand But she turned away And I heard her said He doesn't, understandI don't need riches to make me care Just a ribbon for my hairI bought my love two golden hearts To wear upon her ears But she turned from me So I could not see Her eyes, were filled with tearsI don't need riches to make me care Just a ribbon for my hairI tought she was unhappy But I couldn't fought no more So I bought her just a ribbon For a penny at the storeI bought her just a ribbon blue To wear in her hair+ Then she pressed her lips To my fingerstips Saying: Now, I know you careI don't need riches to make me care Just a ribbon for my hair Just a ribbon for my hair
