Try to take a break some time
And walk by the banks of the bonny river
When you're feeling out of sorts and kind of bad
You can walk by the bonny river
The bonny river is there for you to take advantage of
So when you're feeling all alone and blue
You can think about the one you love
The one you love
Song a little song out underneath the trees
As you walk by the bonny river
Soon you will be just as happy as you please
If you walk by the bonny river
*The bonny river is a way of life that you cannot deny
The grass grows tall along the quiet banks
Beneath the clear blue sky
The clear blue sky
* *So if you're ever in a bind and life is oh so mean
It makes you want to shiver
Take a little break and come along with me
Beneath the sun by the bonny river
* Repeat
**Repeat
By the bonny river, the bonny river...
And walk by the banks of the bonny river
When you're feeling out of sorts and kind of bad
You can walk by the bonny river
The bonny river is there for you to take advantage of
So when you're feeling all alone and blue
You can think about the one you love
The one you love
Song a little song out underneath the trees
As you walk by the bonny river
Soon you will be just as happy as you please
If you walk by the bonny river
*The bonny river is a way of life that you cannot deny
The grass grows tall along the quiet banks
Beneath the clear blue sky
The clear blue sky
* *So if you're ever in a bind and life is oh so mean
It makes you want to shiver
Take a little break and come along with me
Beneath the sun by the bonny river
* Repeat
**Repeat
By the bonny river, the bonny river...
