Ribbons of blue
Reminds me of you
Ribbons of red
Are the way that my heart bled
Memories so clear
Are still ringing in my ear
So I wanna send to you
My Ol' ribbons of blue

Got me a ribbon
Bright blue ribbon for my head
Made me a promise
Now I know he didn't care
Touched by his first kiss
Fooled by his first song
The way he led me along
With my ribbons undone

Ribbons of blue
Reminds me of you
Ribbons of red
Are the way that my heart bled
Memories so clear
Are still ringing in my ear
So I wanna send to you
My Ol' ribbons of blue

Sad about you baby
So bad for me baby Oohh
Hard on me baby
So far from me baby

Ribbons of blue
Reminds me of you
Ribbons of red
Are the way that my heart bled
Memories so clear
Are still ringing in my ear
So I wanna send to you
My Ol' ribbons of blue
