The Bonnie Boy - Mary O'Hara[00:00:00]

The trees are growing high[00:00:08]

My loving grass is growing green[00:00:11]

And many the cold and winter night[00:00:16]

That I alone have been[00:00:19]

It is a cruel and beaten night[00:00:23]

That I must lie alone[00:00:26]

Oh the bonny boy is young[00:00:29]

But he's growing[00:00:33]

Oh father dear father[00:00:38]

I think you did me wrong[00:00:41]

For to go and get me married[00:00:43]

To one that is so young[00:00:45]

He is but sixteen years[00:00:48]

And I am twenty-one[00:00:51]

Oh the bonny boy is young[00:00:53]

But he's growing[00:00:56]

Oh daughter dear daughter[00:00:59]

I did not do you wrong[00:01:02]

For to go and get you married[00:01:05]

To one that is so young[00:01:07]

He will be a match for you[00:01:10]

And I am dead and gone[00:01:12]

Oh the bonny boy is young[00:01:15]

But he's growing[00:01:18]

Oh father dear father[00:01:22]

I'll tell you what I'll do[00:01:25]

I'll send my love to college[00:01:28]

For another year or two[00:01:30]

And all around his college cap[00:01:33]

I'll bind a ribbon blue[00:01:35]

For to let the ladies know[00:01:38]

That he's married[00:01:40]

A year it went by[00:01:44]

And I passed the college wall[00:01:46]

And saw the young collegians[00:01:49]

A-playing at the ball[00:01:52]

I spiting mean amongst them[00:01:54]

The fairest of them all[00:01:57]

Oh my bonny boy was young[00:02:00]

And still growing[00:02:05]

At the age of sixteen years[00:02:10]

He was a married man[00:02:13]

And at the age of seventeen[00:02:16]

The father of a son[00:02:19]

But at the age of eighteen[00:02:22]

All his graved grass grow green[00:02:25]

The cruel death put an end to his growing[00:02:29]

I'll buy my love a shroud[00:02:38]

Of the ornamental brown[00:02:43]

And whilst they are making it[00:02:47]

The tears they will run down[00:02:50]

It once I had a true love[00:02:55]

But now he's lying low[00:02:59]

And I'll nurse his bonny boy[00:03:03]

While he's growing[00:03:09]
