Bonny Boys Lyrics - Family - Thompson

Here you are - my bonny boys 

You're all dressed up to seize the world 

And all its toys 

I hope it's roses all the way 

May you be lauded from Tiree to Arinsay 

Tell the truth and chain the devil 

When you play fair the field is always level 

Don't go with jezebels, they'll lead you to straight to hell 

Find a girl whose heart is not for sale 

Sing boys sing 

be a tinker or a king 

Bow to no-one 

Fear nothing 

Let love in 

Try your tears I am at peace 

With your sweet voices in my ears 

such sweet release 

The piper calls and I must heed 

When the curlew's flying low please think on me 

When the curlew's flying low, please think on me
