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]
