My Bonnie
Somewhere on the ocean waves, my Bonnie must be.
How I want her to come back to me.
That is a song that is old and legendary.
If you ever want to hear something quite cool,
listen to a version recorded by boys from Liverpool.
That song came before most of their rest.
The drummer at the time was a guy named Pete Best.
Pete preceded a fellow named “Ringo”.
Mister Starr at the time was someone the other three did not know.
The recording is quite snappy with a good smooth flow.
So if anyone sees my Bonnie lying over the sea,
get her and bring her right back to me.
