If I had a ribbon bow To hide my hair If I had a fancy sash My own true love would find me fair My red shoes would go dancing Whe'er my fancy would My love would wish That he had taken me while he could If I were like city girls And fair with smile Not a man in all these parts Would know my heart My red shoes would go dancing Whe'er my fancy chose I'd lark about the sidewalk And wear them foreign clothes If I were like city girls If I had a fancy sash If I had a ribbon bow To hide my hair If I had a fancy sash My own true love would find me fair
