D                     D   D                         D
  A lock of your hair        and a faded red ribbon
              A                       D    D
Is all I have left    to remind me of you
D                   D                        D
A lock of your hair   and a faded red ribbon

Is all I have left of a love we once knew

I know I mistreated you     and you went away

Listen here boys         if you have a sweetheart

Show her you love her    and make her your wife


[Chorus]
D                        D                         D

Will make you unhappy      for the rest of your life

Will make you unhappy      for the rest of your life
