Bonny Light Horseman Magpie's Nest
[Verse 1]
If I was a king, I'd make you my queen
I'd row you in my arm where the meadows are so green
And I'd hold you in my thoughts, as I laid me down to rest
Me and my Colleen, in the magpie's nest
[Chorus]
In the magpie's nest
In the magpie's nest
In the magpie's nest
[Verse 2]
And I know there is a cut, so bright and so clean
That stands along the shadows where the meadows are so green
And I'd never met a Colleen, with such beauty blessed
As the one so fair, in the magpie's nest
[Chorus]
In the magpie's nest
In the magpie's nest
In the magpie's nest
[Verse 3]
I've wandered through carry, and I've wandered through cliffs
From Boston down to Jersey, from there to God knows where
And I'd never met a Colleen, with such beauty blessed
As the one so fair, in the magpie's nest
[Chorus]
In the magpie's nest
In the magpie's nest
In the magpie's nest
In the magpie's nest
In the magpie's nest
In the magpie's nest
In the magpie's nest
