My Bonnie is over the ocean,
my Bonnie is over the sea,
my Bonnie is over the ocean.
Oh, bring back my Bonnie to me.

Bring back, bring back,
bring back my Bonnie to me, to me.
Bring back, bring back,
oh, bring back my Bonnie to me.

Oh, blow ye winds over the ocean,
oh, blow ye winds over the sea,
oh, blow ye winds over the ocean,
and bring back my Bonnie to me.

Bring back, bring back…

The winds have blown over ocean,
the winds have blown over sea,
the winds have blown over ocean.
And brought back my Bonnie to me.

Bring back, bring back…

Last night as I lay on my pillow,
last night as I lay on my bed,
last night as I lay on my pillow,
I dreamed that my Bonnie was dead.

Bring back, bring back…
