If I were a minstrel I’d sing you six love songs, | |
To tell the whole world of the love that we share, | |
If I were a merchant I’d bring you six diamonds, | |
With six blood red roses for my love to wear, | |
But I am a simple man, a poor common farmer, | |
So take my six ribbons to tie back your hair, | |
Yellow and brown, blue as the sky, | |
Red as my blood, green as your eyes, | |
If I were a nobleman I’d bring you six carriages, | |
With six snow white horses to take you anywhere, | |
If I were the emperor I’d build you six palaces, | |
With six hundred servants for comforting fare, | |
But I am a simple man, a poor common farmer, | |
So take my six ribbons to tie back your hair, | |
If I were a minstrel I’d sing you six love songs, | |
To tell the whole world of the love that we share, | |
So be not afraid my love, you’re never alone love, | |
While you wear my ribbons tying back your hair, | |
Once I was a simple man, a poor common farmer, | |
I gave you six ribbons to tie back your hair, | |
Too-ra-lee, too-ra-lie, all I can share, | |
Is only six ribbons to tie back your hair, | |
Too-ra-lee, too-ra-lie, all I can share, | |
I gave you six ribbons to tie back your hair. |
If I were a minstrel I' d sing you six love songs, | |
To tell the whole world of the love that we share, | |
If I were a merchant I' d bring you six diamonds, | |
With six blood red roses for my love to wear, | |
But I am a simple man, a poor common farmer, | |
So take my six ribbons to tie back your hair, | |
Yellow and brown, blue as the sky, | |
Red as my blood, green as your eyes, | |
If I were a nobleman I' d bring you six carriages, | |
With six snow white horses to take you anywhere, | |
If I were the emperor I' d build you six palaces, | |
With six hundred servants for comforting fare, | |
But I am a simple man, a poor common farmer, | |
So take my six ribbons to tie back your hair, | |
If I were a minstrel I' d sing you six love songs, | |
To tell the whole world of the love that we share, | |
So be not afraid my love, you' re never alone love, | |
While you wear my ribbons tying back your hair, | |
Once I was a simple man, a poor common farmer, | |
I gave you six ribbons to tie back your hair, | |
Tooralee, tooralie, all I can share, | |
Is only six ribbons to tie back your hair, | |
Tooralee, tooralie, all I can share, | |
I gave you six ribbons to tie back your hair. |
If I were a minstrel I' d sing you six love songs, | |
