W: W:Chorus: W:Broken-hearted I'll wander, broken-hearted I'll remain W:Since my bonny light horseman in the wars he was slain. W: W:And if I was a small bird and had wings to fly W:I would fly o'er the salt seas to where my love does lie. W:And with my fond wings I'd beat over his grave, W:And I'd kiss the pale lips that lie cold in the clay. W: W:Chorus W: W:Now the dove she laments for her mate as she flies. W:"Oh, where, tell me where, is my true love?", she cries. W:And where in this wide world is there one to compare W:With my bonny light horseman who was slain in the war. W: W:Chorus W: W:When Boney commanded his army to stand, W:He levelled his cannons right over the land W:He levelled his cannons his victory to gain W:And slew my light horseman on the way coming home.
