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 ring that has no end,
I gave my love a baby that's no cry-in.
How can there be a cherry without a stone?
How can there be a chicken without a bone?
How can there be a ring that has no end?
How can there be a baby with no cryin'?
A cherry when it's bloomin', it has no stone
A chicken when it's pippin', it has no bone.
A ring when it's rollin', it has no end.
A baby when it's sleepin', it's no cryin'.
