The Riddle Song (I Gave My Love A Cherry) Lyrics
Traditional Folk Song
Fingerpicking guitar version

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 story that has no end
I gave my love a baby with 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?

A cherry, when it's blooming, it has no stone
A chicken when it's pipping, it has no bone
The story of I love you, it has no end
A baby when it's sleeping, there`s no cryin

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 story that has no end
I gave my love a baby with no cryin
