Mitch Miller - She Wore a Yellow Ribbon lyrics

'Round her neck she wore a yellow ribbon She wore it in the springtime and in the month of May And if you asked her why the heck she wore it She wore it for her lover who was far, far away Far away, far away She wore it for her lover far away 'Round her neck she wore a yellow ribbon She wore it for her lover Who was far, far away 'Round the park She walks a little baby She walks him in the winter And in the summer, so they say And if you ask her Why on earth she walks him She walks him for her lover who is far, far away Far away, far away She walks him for her lover far away 'Round the park She walks a little baby She walks him for her lover Who is far, far away That boy, he is A cunning little fellow His birthday was a year ago Late in the month of May And if you ask him Sonny, who's your daddy He'll say, My dad's a cowboy Who is far, far away He'll say, My dad's a cowboy far away And if you ask him Sonny, who's your daddy He'll say, My dad's a cowboy Who is far, far away Behind the door Her father keeps a shotgun It's loaded with a double dose Of buckshot, so they say And if you ask him, Why the ammunition He keeps it for that cowboy Who is far, far away Far away, far away He keeps it for that cowboy far away And if you ask him Why the ammunition He keeps it for that cowboy Who is far, far away
