My Bonnie Leaned over the Gas Tank
My Bonnie leaned over the gas tank,
The height of its contents to see.
I lighted a match to assist her.
Oh, bring back my Bonnie to me!
Bring back, bring back, O bring back my Bonnie to me, to me!
Bring back, bring back, O bring back my Bonnie to me!
My Bonnie Got Caught in a Rainstorm
My Bonnie'd a peach-bloom complexion—
Her face, it was lovely to see.
One day she got caught in a rainstorm.
Oh, bring back my Bonnie to me!
Bring back, bring back, O bring back my Bonnie to me, to me!
Bring back, bring back, O bring back my Bonnie to me!
My breakfast lies over the ocean,
My supper lies over the rail,
My dinner lies in great commotion:
Will someone please bring me a pail?!
Bring back, bring back, O bring back my stomach to me, to me!
Bring back, bring back, O bring back my stomach to me!
