The Riddle
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 cryin'
I gave my love a story
That had no end
(Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh)
The riddle of my love
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 cryin'?
How can there be a story
That has no end?
(Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh)
A cherry when it's bloomin'
It has no stone
A chicken when it's hatchin'
It has no bone
A baby when it's sleepin'
Has no cryin'
The story that I love you
It has no end
(Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh)
And I'll love you, as long as there's a sky above
And the grass below is green
For of all things on god's earth
You mean the most to me
(Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh)
The riddle of my love
That had no stone
I gave my love a chicken
That had no bone
I gave my love a baby
With no cryin'
I gave my love a story
That had no end
(Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh)
The riddle of my love
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 cryin'?
How can there be a story
That has no end?
(Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh)
A cherry when it's bloomin'
It has no stone
A chicken when it's hatchin'
It has no bone
A baby when it's sleepin'
Has no cryin'
The story that I love you
It has no end
(Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh)
And I'll love you, as long as there's a sky above
And the grass below is green
For of all things on god's earth
You mean the most to me
(Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh)
The riddle of my love
