Yellow ribbon (Navy)

Around her hair she wore a yellow ribbon, She wore it in the springtime, in the merry month of May. And if you asked her why did she wear it, She wore it for her Sailor who was far, far away. Far away, Far away. She wore it for her Sailor who was far, far away. Around the block she pushed a baby carriage, She pushed it in the springtime, in the merry month of May. And if you asked her why did she push it, She pushed it for her Sailor who was far, far away. Far away, Far away. She pushed it for her Sailor who was far, far away. Behind the door, her daddy kept a shotgun. He kept it in the springtime, in the merry month of May. And if you asked him why did he keep it, He kept it for her Sailor who was far, far away. Far away, Far away. He kept it for her Sailor who was far, far away. Around her hair she wore a black veil, She wore in the springtime, in the gloomy month of May. And if you asked her why did she wear it. She wore it for her Sailor who died far, far away. Far away, Far away. She wore it for her Sailor who died far, far away. (no repeat)
