Scarlet Ribbons |
| Wander throught the streets |
| To the top of the town |
| Banshee wails and bawling |
| The people gather round |
| There’s been gunfire, there’s been drinking |
| You can hear the victory voice |
| On the chapel door and the courthouse |
| The posters say rejoice |
| Ribbons, scarlet ribbons |
| Carouselling in the sun |
| Ribbons, scarlet ribbons |
| There’s one for everyone |
| There’s one on the tree at the edge of the park |
| Two in the hair of the girls in the dark |
| Three on the soldier whose medals he shows |
| A fusion of colours, just like a rose |
| Ribbons, scarlet ribbons |
| Carouselling in the sun |
| Ribbons, scarlet ribbons |
| There’s one for everyone |
| Ribbons, scarlet ribbons |
| Carouselling in the sun |
| Ribbons, scarlet ribbons |
| There’s one for everyone |
| On the bells of celebration |
| In The bedrooms of the nation |
| On a lonely isle, so cold and bare |
| Lies a dead soldier, so fresh and rare |
| Ribbons, scarlet ribbons |
| Carouselling in the sun |
| Ribbons, scarlet ribbons |
| There’s one for everyone |
