I peeped in to say good night
   When I heard my child in prayer
   "Send for me, some scarlet ribbons
   Scarlet ribbons for my hair"
  
   All the stores were closed and shuttered
   All the streets were dark and bare
   In my town no scarlet ribbons
   Scarlet ribbons for her hair
  
   Through the night my heart was aching
   Just before the dawn was breaking
  
   I peeped in and on her bed
   In gay profusion lying there
   I saw ribbons, scarlet ribbons
   Scarlet ribbons for her hair
  
   If I live to be a hundred
   I will never know from where
   Came those lovely scarlet ribbons
   Scarlet ribbons for her hair
