Every word on my mind, Bonny is your goodbye
Black, black, black, black is the day
No sun is shining in my world
Bonny, since you went away

Sad, sad, sad, sad is my heart
All my laughter's turned to tears
Bonny, since you've been apart

Every pretty flower has turned to brown
They all look like me with their head tied down
My heart only sing the sadness song
Bonny, since you've been gone

Cry, cry, cry, you know I cry
Every word on my mind, Bonny is your goodbye
Every word on my mind, Bonny is you goodbye
