jimmy aldridge & sid goldsmith - bonny bunch of roses lyrics
by the margin of the ocean one pleasant evening in the month of june
a pleasant singing blackbird his charming notes did tune
was there i spied a woman all in great grief and woe
conversing with young bonaparte concerning the bonny bunch of roses+o
and then up and spoke the young napoleon he took hold of his mother’s hand
“mother dear, be patient and soon i will take command
i’ll lead a terrible army through tremendous danger go
and in spite of all of the universe i’ll come back with a bonny bunch of roses+o”
“oh my son, don’t speak so venturesome, for england she has a heart of oak
england and ireland and scotland, their unity has never been broke
so my son think on your father, on st. helena his body lies low
and you will follow after, beware the bonny bunch of roses+o”
“and when first you saw the great napoleon, you fell down on your bended knee
you asked your father’s life of him, and he’s granted it most manfully”
’twas then he took an army and o’er the frozen alps did go
and he said “i’ll conquer moscow, and i’ll come back with a bonny bunch of roses+o
and he took three hundred thousand fighting men, and kings likewise for to join his throng
he was as well provided for, enough to take the world alone
when he came to moscow all overpowered by driving snow
and moscow was a+blazing, he lost the bonny bunch of roses+o”
by the margin of the ocean one pleasant evening in the month of june
a pleasant singing blackbird his charming notes did tune
was there i spied a woman all in great grief and woe
for she had lost another bonaparte, beware of the bonny bunch of roses+o
