Somewhere, a ship and crew
Sails o'er the ocean blue
Bringing, oh, bringing
My bonnie back to meThat's why the
Drums are drumming
That's why the
Pipes are humming
My Bonnie Lassie's coming
Coming to meDrums in my heart are drumming
I hear the bagpipes humming
My Bonnie Lassie's
Coming over the sea
My heart with her, she's bringing
I hear the blue bells ringing
Soon we'll be highland flinging
My love and meI'll meet her at the shore
Playing the pipes for her
Dressed in a kilt and
A tam o'shanter tooDrums in my heart are drumming
I hear the bagpipes humming
My Bonnie Lassie's coming
Coming to meSad are the lads she's leaving
Many a sigh they're heaving
Even the heaven's grieving
Crying with dew
She's left her native island
To come and live in my land
She'll love the folks who smile
And say, howdy doI'll meet her at the shore
Playing the pipes for her
Dressed in a kilt and
A tam o'shanter tooDrums in my heart are drumming
I hear the bagpipes humming
My Bonnie Lassie's coming
Coming to me, coming to me
