On the fourteenth of May at the dawn of the dayWith my gun on my shoulder to the woods I did strayIn search of some game if the weather proved fairTo see could I get a shot at the bonny black hareOh, I met a young girl there with her face as a roseAnd her skin was as fair as the lily that blowsI says My fair maiden, why mumble you so?Can you tell me where the bonny black hare do go?Oh, the answer she gave me, her answer was NoBut it's under me apron they say it do goAnd if you'll not deceive me I vow and declareWe'll both go together to hunt the bonny black hareWell, I laid this girl down with her face to the skyAnd I took out my ramrod and my bullets likewiseI says Lock your legs round me and dig in with your heelsFor the closer we get, oh, the better it feelsThe birds they were singing in the bushes and treesAnd the song that they sang was Oh, she's easy to pleaseI felt her heart quiver and I knew what I'd doneSays I Have you had enough of my old sporting gun?Oh, the answer she gave me, her answer was NayIt's not often young sportsmen like you come this wayAnd if your powder is willing and your bullets play fairWhy don't you keep firing at the bonny black hare?Oh, my powder is wasted and my bullets all goneMy ramrod is limp and I cannot fire onBut I'll be back in the morning and if you are still hereWe'll both go together to hunt the bonny black hare
