I brought my girl an apple
I brought my girl an apple, she let me hold her tight,
I brought my girl an orange, we kissed beneath the band;
I brought my girl a lemon, she let me squeeze her tight,
I’m going to bring a water melon to my girl tonight.
I brought my girl red ribbons, she hung them in her hair,
I brought my girl some sequins, she stuck them here and there;
I brought my girl good china, she hung it from the shelf,
Tonight I’m going to bring a rope and she can hang herself.
