He gave to me a silver ring To wear upon my hand But I turned away And he heard me saying Oh, he doesn't, he doesn't understand I don't need riches to make me care Just a ribbon for my hair He gave to me two golden hearts To wear upon my ears But I turned from him So he could not see My eyes, my eyes were filled with tears I don't need riches to make me care Just a ribbon for my hair He tought I was unhappy But he could not fight no more So he bought me just a ribbon For a penny at the store He bought me just a ribbon blue To wear in my hair Then I pressed my lips To his fingerstips Saying Now, now I know you care I don't need riches to make me care Just a ribbon for my hair I don't need riches to make me care
