Riddle Song Lyrics

THE RIDDLE SONG

I gave my love a cherry that has no stone,
I gave my love a chicken that has no bone,
I gave my love a ring that has no end,
I gave my love a baby with no cryen.

How can there be a cherry that has no stone?
How can there be a chicken that has no bone?
How can there be a ring that has no end?
How can there be a baby with no cryen?

A cherry, when it's blooming, it has no stone,
A chicken when it's pipping, it has no bone,
A ring when it's rolling, it has no end,Unknown - Riddle Song - http://motolyrics.com/unknown/riddle-song-lyrics.html
A baby when it's sleeping, has no cryen.
