My bonnie : (duet with briar boake) to lynn liddell
My bonnie lies over the ocean
My bonnie lies over the sea
My bonnie lies over the ocean
Bring back my bonnie to me
Last night as I lay on my pillow
Last night as I lay on my bed
I dreamt that my bonnie was dead
(chorus)
Bring back, bring back
Bring back my bonnie to me
Bring back, bring back
Bring back my bonnie to me
Bring back, bring back bring him back to me
Bring back, bring back bring her back to me
O blow ye winds over the ocean
O blow ye winds over the sea
O blow ye winds over the ocean
And bring back my bonnie to me
(chorus)
