When I was young and in my prime, when I was seventeen,
All the fellows aboot the place, they called me "Bonnie Jean"
But there was one that courted me, for nearly seven years,
Then we got wed but noo he's dead and he's left me here in tears.

Chorus

Oh! he was very, very, very, very kind to me!
Very kind to me!
Very kind to me, He was very, very, very, very very,
very, very kind to me!

Verse 2

Oh!, I don't know what I'm going to do, since my poor Sandy died,
we never had a row in the hoose, we always fought outside,
He use to bring his wages home and throw them in my lap,
Then wash his face and take his tea, then ask his wages back.

Chorus
