Nana Mouskouri - Just A Ribbon lyrics

rate me

1-

He gave to me a silver ring

To wear upon my hand

But I turned away

And he heard me saying

"Oh!he doesn't, he doesn't understand"

Refrain

I don't need riches to make me care

Just a ribbon for my hair

2-

He gave me two golden hearts

To wear upon my ears

But I turned from him

So he could not see

My eyes, my eyes were filled with tears

3-

He tought I was unhappy

But he could not fight no more

So he bought me just a ribbon

For a penny at the store

4-

He bought me just a ribbon blue

To wear in my hair

Then I pressed my lips

To his fingerstips,

Saying "Now, now I know you care

I don't need riches to make me care
