lirik lagu peg clancy & bobby clancy - the bonny boy

[verse 1]
the trees are growing tall, and the grass is growing green
and many’s the day and night have gone since you and i have seen
the winter nights are coming and i must lie alone
for my bonny boy is young, but he’s growing

[verse 2]
now daughter, dear daughter, don’t mind what people say
he will be a man to you when you are old and grey
he will be a man to you when i am dead and gone
he’s your bonny boy, he’s young but he’s growing

[verse 3]
now father, dear father, you’ve done what’s very wrong
to marry me to that bonny boy he being so very young
he being only sixteen years and i being twenty~one
he’s my bonny boy, he’s young but he’s growing

[verse 4]
now daughter, dear daughter, i’ll tell you what i’ll do
i’ll send your love to college for another year or two
and all around his bonnet, we will tie a ribbon blue
for to let the ladies know that he’s married

[verse 5]
as i strolled out one evening down by the college wall
’twas there i saw the college boys and they all playing ball
’twas there i spied my own true love, the fairest of them all
he’s my bonny boy, he’s young but he’s growing
[verse 6]
now at the age of sixteen he was a married man
and at the age of seventeen the father of a son
and at the age of eighteen years o’er his grave the grass grew green
cruel death had put an end to his growing

[verse 7]
now, all you fair young maidens, a warning take by me
and never try to build your nest on the top of a high tree
for the green leaves they will wither and the branches will decay
and the blushes of your bonny boy will soon fade away
