[00:00:00] Bonnie Boy Is Young - Judy Collins (朱蒂·柯林斯)

[00:00:00] Written by：Traditional

[00:00:12] The trees they grow tall

[00:00:15] The grass is growing green

[00:00:20] Many a cold and winter night that I alone have been

[00:00:27] It is a cold and cruel night when I must lie alone

[00:00:34] The Bonny Boy is young but he is growing

[00:00:45] Oh father dear father I think you done me wrong

[00:00:53] To go and get me married to one who is so young

[00:01:01] For he is only sixteen years and I am twenty one

[00:01:08] The bonny boy is young but he's growing

[00:01:20] Oh daughter dear daughter I did not do you wrong

[00:01:27] For I have married you to a rich man's son

[00:01:35] And he shall be a match for thee when I am dead and gone

[00:01:44] He is young but he is daily growing

[00:01:54] Oh father dear father I'll tell you what I'll do

[00:02:01] I'll send the boy to college for another year or two

[00:02:09] And all around his college cap I'll bind a ribbon blue

[00:02:17] For to let the ladies know that he's married

[00:02:29] A year it went by and I passed the college wall

[00:02:36] And saw the young collegians a playing at the ball

[00:02:43] Amidst them was my own true love

[00:02:48] The fairest of them all

[00:02:52] He was young but he was daily growing

[00:03:03] At the age of sixteen he was a married man

[00:03:10] And at the age of seventeen he was the father of a son

[00:03:18] At the age of eighteen his grave had all grown green

[00:03:26] And the death put an end to his growing

[00:03:37] I'll make my love a shroud of ornamental brown

[00:03:44] And whilst I am a making it the tears they will run down

[00:03:53] For once I had my own love now he's lying low

[00:04:00] And I'll nurse his bonny boy while he's growing
