I Gave My Love a Cherry

I gave my love a cherry. What would you give her?
I gave my love a cherry
As she was passing by
And to my delight
She took a little bite
And spat the pip in my eye
In my eye
Eye
She spat the pip in my eye
Now my heart is blithely singing
Like a mavis in the sky
For it proved that she
Had noticed me
When she spat the pip in my eye
In my eye
Eye
When she spat the pip in my eye
I gave my love a cherry
And now, until I die,
I shall hold most dear
This precious souvenir
The pip she spat in my eye
In my eye
Eye
The pip she spat in my eye
