Drums in my heart are drummin' I hear the bagpipes hummin' My Bonnie La**ie's comin' over the sea My heart with her she's bringin' I hear the blue bells ringin' Soon we'll be highland flingin' My love and me Somewhere a ship and crew Sails o'er the ocean blue Bringing, oh, bringing My bonnie back to me That's why the drums are drummin' That's why the pips are hummin' My Bonnie La**ie's comin', comin' to me
Sad are the lads she's leavin' Many a sigh they're heavin' Even the heather's grievin', cryin' with dew She's left her native highland To come and live in my land She'll love the folks who smile And say, "how-de-do" I'll meet her at the shore Playin the pipes for her Dressed in a kilt and a tam'oshanter too Drums in my heart are drummin' I hear the bagpipes hummin' My Bonnie La**ie's comin', comin' to me
