Lyrics:

3. Six Ribbons
If I were a minstrel, I'd sing you six love songs
to tell the whole world of the love that we shared
If I were a merchant, I'd bring you six diamonds
With six blood red roses, for my love to share
But I am a simple man, a poor common farmer
So take my six ribbons, to tie back your hair
Yellow and brown, blue as the sky, red as my blood, green as your eye.
If I were a nobleman
I'd bring you six carriages, with six snow white horses to take you anywhere
If I were the emperor
I'd build you six palaces with six hundred servants for comforting care
But I am a simple man a poor common farmer
So take my six ribbons to tie back your hair
If I where a minstrel
I'd sing you six love songs to tell the whole world of the love that we share
so don't afraid, my love,
You're never alone, love while you wear my ribbons tie'n back your hair
Once I was a simple man a poor common farmer I gave you six ribbons to tie back your hair
Tooralee, tooralie
All I can share is only six ribbons to tie back your hair
Tooralee, tooralie
All I can share is only six ribbons to tie back your hair
