I Gave My Love A Cherry [The Riddle Song] lyrics

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 story

That had no end

I gave my love a baby

Got 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 story

That has no end?

How can there be a baby

With no cryin'?

Well, a cherry when it's blooming

It has no stone

A chicken when it's pippin'

It has no bone

The story of I love you

It has no end

A baby when it's sleeping

Has no cryin'

Hush, little baby

Hush, little baby

Hush, little baby

Don't you cry
