anthony newley – strawberry fair lyrics
strawberries. ripe strawberries
as i was going to strawberry fair
singing, singing, b+tter+cups and daisies
i met a maiden selling her wares
fol+de+dee!
her eyes were blue and she was fair
and she rode on a donkey to strawberry fair
ri+fol, ri+fol, tol+de+riddle+li+do
ri+fol, ri+fol, tol+de+riddle+dee
“would you like to pick from my basket!” she said
singing, singing, b+tter+cups and daisies
“my cherries ripe, or my roses red”
fol+de+dee!
you can take a handful, i don’t care
as i go on to strawbеrry fair.”
ri+fol, ri+fol, tol+de+riddle+li+do
ri+fol, ri+fol, tol+de+riddlе+dee
so i said to this bird
your cherries soon will go mouldy and bad
singing, singing b+ttercups and wotsits
your roses wither and look all sad
fol+de+dee
now it’s not to buy such perishing ware
that i am slogging it to strawberry fair
oh, ri+fol, ri+fol, come and get an earful
ri+fol, ri+fol, tol+de+riddle+dee
i told her straight
i want a girl with a generous heart
singing, singing, b+tter+cups and oojahs
without a tongue that is wicked or smart
fol+de+dee!
and an honest mind, but these are rare
i doubt if i’ll find them at this crummy old fair
ri+fol, ri+fol, tol+de+riddle+li+do
ri+fol, well, you know the rest, don’t you
so i put it to her straight
now in return for these virtues, i swear
knees up, knees up, come and have a knees up
i’ll give you a ring for your finger my dear
fol+de+dee!
so make me your partner and give me a share
in church today at strawberry fair
now, ri+fol, ri+fol, tol+de+riddle+li+do
ri+fol, ri+fol
strawberries. shan’t be round tomorrow
the donkey’s pinched all the strawberries
hee+hee+hee+hee
