I Have A Bonnet Trimmed With Blue

1. I have a bonnet trimmed with blue.
"Do you wear it? " Yes, I do.
I always wear it when I can,
Going down the street with my young man.

2. My young man has gone to sea,
When he comes home he'll marry me.
Tip to the heel and tip to the toe,
That's the way the polka goes.


An Irish polka that’s also a children’s song.  It was a Scottish pipe tune which “moved over” to Ireland, with many variations since then.
