Bonnie Boy Is Young - Judy Collins[00:00:01]

The trees they grow tall[00:00:12]

The grass is growing green[00:00:15]

Many a cold and winter night that I alone have been[00:00:20]

It is a cold and cruel night when I must lie alone[00:00:27]

The Bonny Boy is young but he is growing[00:00:34]

Oh father dear father I think you done me wrong[00:00:45]

To go and get me married to one who is so young[00:00:53]

For he is only sixteen years and I am twenty one[00:01:01]

The bonny boy is young but he's growing[00:01:08]

Oh daughter dear daughter I did not do you wrong[00:01:20]

For I have married you to a rich man's son[00:01:27]

And he shall be a match for thee when I am dead and gone[00:01:35]

He is young but he is daily growing[00:01:44]

Oh father dear father I'll tell you what I'll do[00:01:54]

I'll send the boy to college for another year or two[00:02:01]

And all around his college cap I'll bind a ribbon blue[00:02:09]

For to let the ladies know that he's married[00:02:17]

A year it went by and I passed the college wall[00:02:29]

And saw the young collegians a playing at the ball[00:02:36]

Amidst them was my own true love[00:02:43]

The fairest of them all[00:02:48]

He was young but he was daily growing[00:02:52]

At the age of sixteen he was a married man[00:03:03]

And at the age of seventeen he was the father of a son[00:03:10]

At the age of eighteen his grave had all grown green[00:03:18]

And the death put an end to his growing[00:03:26]

I'll make my love a shroud of ornamental brown[00:03:37]

And whilst I am a making it the tears they will run down[00:03:44]

For once I had my own love now he's lying low[00:03:53]

And I'll nurse his bonny boy while he's growing[00:04:00]
