OriginalI Gave My Love A Cherry (The Riddle Song) - canzone folk americana...
I WILL GIVE MY LOVE AN APPLE

I will give my love an apple without e'er a core
I will give my love a house without e'er a door,
I will give my love a palace wherein she may be,
But she may unlock it without any key.

My head is the apple without e'er a core,
My mind is the house without e'er a door.
My heart is the palace wherein she may be
And she may unlock it without e'er a key.
I GAVE MY LOVE A CHERRY

I gave my love a cherry which had no stone
I gave my love a chicken which had no bone
I gave my love a story which had no end
I gave my love a baby with no cryin'

How can there be a cherry which has no stone?
How can there be a chicken which has no bone?
How can there be a story which has no end?
How can there be a baby she's no cryin'?

A cherry when it's blooming, it has no stone
A chicken when it's pippin, it has no bone
The story that I love you, it has no end
A baby when she's sleeping, she's no cryin'
