Were to see Pat Tom of [A] bad [Dm] luck Ten [G] thousand miles I'd [Dm] travel Mad Morton goes on dirty toes Were to save her shoes from gravel
Still I sing bonnie boys, bonnie mad boys Bedlam boys are bongly
Oh they all go bare and they live [A] by the air [D] And they want no drink [G] nor [D] money
I [Dm] went down to Satan's kitchen For to get me food [Gm] one [D] morning
And in there I got sores by being hot All on this bitter turning
[Dm] Still I sing bonnie boys, bonnie mad boys Bedlam boys are bongly
Oh they all go bare and they live by the air And they want no drink nor [D] money
I starve those [Am] maddy giants [D] And me bag a long knife caries
For to cut mince pies in [Am] children's thighs [Dm] With which to feed the fairies
Still I sing bonnie boys, [Am] bonnie mad [Dm] boys Bedlam boys are bongly
Oh they all go bare and they live [Am] by the air [D] And they want no drink nor money
This pivots white [C] as lightning [D] Wood on me travels grinding
The moon would shake and the [C] stars would quake [Dm] Whenever they espied me
Still I sing bonnie boys, bonnie mad boys Bedlam boys are bongly
Oh they all go bare and they live [Am] by the air [D] And they want no drink nor money

And when the tiger [Am] murdered [D] The man in the moon to a powder
His staff I'll break [Am] and his log I'll [Dm] shake In there loud the demon blathered
Still I sing bonnie boys, [Am] bonnie mad [Dm] boys Bedlam boys are bongly
Oh they all go bare and they live [D] by the air And they want no drink nor money
For to seat back [Am] on the bedlam [G]
Ten thousand [Dm] years I'd travel
Mad more drink and some [Am] dirty toes But [G] to save I'd shoot some [Dm] gravel
Still I sing bonnie boys, [Am] bonnie mad [D] boys [Dm] Bedlam boys are bongly
Oh they all go bare and they live by the air And they want no drink nor money
