Five yards to pin on her snowy white bosom,
And five to tie in her hair.
“‘I have a lantern to light her along with—
To light her along with, to light her along with—
I have a lantern to light her along with,
When forth she fares in the night;
Out in the dark, the ribbon will rustle—
The ribbon will rustle, the ribbon will rustle—
Out in the dark the ribbon will rustle,
And the lantern will lend her its light!’
