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'
My love and me

Somewhere a ship and crew
Sails o'er the ocean blue
Bringing, oh, bringing
My bonnie back to me
That's why the drums are drummin'
That's why the pips are hummin'
My Bonnie Lassie's comin', comin' to me

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, "how-de-do"

I'll meet her at the shore
Playin' the pipes for her
Dressed in a kilt and a tam o'shanter too
Drums in my heart are drummin'
I hear the bagpipes hummin'
My Bonnie Lassie's comin', comin' to me
