Blue Ribbons

Jackie DeShannon, Shari Sheeley

[Verse 1]
Today, I went downtown
Ah, just to look around
And I passed the window of Tiffany
As I stopped to look inside
I wished that I could buy my baby
One of those diamond rings
And lots of other fancy things

[Verse 2]
Well ah, as I walked on down the block
I passed a ritzy shop
With all the latest Paris gowns
But, I'm a daydreaming guy
Who can't afford what he wants to buy
So, I bought her something from a little shop
That didn't cost an awful lot

[Chorus]
Well, I want the best for my baby, yeah
Yeah, I said, nothing's too good for my girl
Yeah, I said, but all that I can give her
Is a love that'll last forever
And these blue ribbons for her curls
Just these blue ribbons for her curls

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
I want the best for my baby, yeah (yеah)
Nothing's too good for my girl
Yeah, I said, but all that I can give her
Is a lovе that'll last forever
And these blue ribbons for her curls, (curls) yeah, yeah, yeah
Just these blue ribbons for her curls (curls)

[Outro]
No, no, no, no
Can't buy her diamonds or pearls (pearls)
One more time, yeah
