From Reader's Digest Boxset RDA-27

CHO: Oh! dear, what can the matter be?
Dear, dear, what can the matter be?
Oh, dear, what can the matter be?
Johnny's so long at the fair.

He promised to buy me
A fairing [souvenir from the fair] would please me
And then for a smile, oh, he vow'd he would tease me
He promis'd he'd bring me a bunch of blue ribbons
To tie up my bonny brown hair.

He promised to buy me a basket of posies
A garland of lilies, a garland of roses
A little straw hat to set off the blue ribbons
That tie up my bonny brown hair.
