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 baby with no crying
And told my love a story that had no end
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 baby with no crying
How can there be a story that has no end
A cherry when it's blooming it has no stone
A chicken when it's pipping, it has no bone
A baby when it's sleeping has no crying
And when I say I love you, it has no end
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 baby with no crying
And told my love a story that had no end
