The Ames Brothers Follow

[Humming.]

[Chorus 1:]
((Somewhere a ship and crew,))
((Sails o'er the ocean blue.))
((Bringin', oh, bringin' my bonnie back to me.))
[At least one of the brothers hums while the next three lines are sung]
(That's why the drums are drummin',)
(That's why the pipes 1 are hummin',)
(My bonnie lassie's comin', comin' to me.)

[Humming.]

[Verse 1:]
((Drums in my heart are drummin',))
((I hear the bagpipes hummin'.))
((My bonnie lassie's comin' over the sea.))
((My heart with her she's bringin',))
((I hear the blue bells ringin'.))
((Soon we'll be highland flingin' 2 , my love and me.

[Chorus 2:]
((I'll meet her at the shore,))
((Playin' the pipes for her.))
((Dressed in a kilt 3 and a tam o'shanter 4 too.))
[At least one of the brothers hums while the next three lines are sung:]
(Drums in my heart are drummin',)
(I hear the bagpipes hummin'.)
(My Bonnie Lassie's comin', comin' to me.)

[Instrumental break.]

[Verse 2:]
((Sad are the lads she's leavin',))
((Many a sigh they're heavin'.))
Even the heather's grievin', cryin' with dew.
((She's left her native highland,))
((To come and live in my land.))
She'll love the folks who smile and say, "Howdy-do!"

[Chorus 2:]
((I'll meet her at the shore,))
((Playin' the pipes for her.))
((Dressed in a kilt and a tam o'shanter too.))
[At least one of the brothers hums while the next three lines are sung]
(Drums in my heart are drummin',)
(I hear the bagpipes hummin'.)
(My bonnie lassie's comin', comin' to me.)

((Comin' to me.))

[Humming to fade.]
