Up travelled east, up travelled west, [G] up travelled by [D] Gertrude,
The bonniest [C]
[D] lass that ever I saw [G] was following [E]
Napoleon [D] Laddy.
Where thee a ride, Bob Bonny lass, [G] tell me what [D] they call ye?
Bonny [C] Jean [D] Gordon is my name, [G] and following [D] Napoleon Laddy.
Do you know sea on hills and [G] dales, and sun shines on [D] so brally?
They're [C] all mine [D] and they shall be thine, [G] if you give up [A] your call, yer [D] laddy.
Who will walk in silk attire, [G] musket tops [D] and gaudy?
We'll [C] want to [D] wait on every hand, [G] when you [E] give your call, [A] yer [D] laddy.

When he has gone, dear favour dear, [G] dear favour come [D] so brally,
[C] Give to me [D] your bonny wheel lass, [G] that's following the call, [D] yer laddy.
I'll give her arms, I'll give her rent, [G] I'll make her [D] a lady,
I'll make [C] her one [D] of a higher [G] degree, until I call her [D] call, yer laddy.
I'll pay the men with bowed and [G] swear, though he be [D] black his bonny,
She's [C] mere [D] delight and hen might, [G] if the new [A] and all yer [D] bonny.
