Hey Nonny Nonny

Beauty sat bathing by a spring where fairest shades did hide her
The winds blew calm, the birds did sing, the cool streams ran beside her
My wanton thoughts enticed mine eye to see what was forbidden
But better memory said "fie" so vain desire was chidden

Hey nonny, nonny, hey nonny, nonny
Hey nonny, nonny, oh, hey nonny, nonny
Hey nonny, nonny, oh, hey nonny, nonny
Hey nonny, nonny, oh, hey nonny, nonny

Into a slumber then I fell when fond imagination
Seemed to see but could not tell her feature or her fashion
But even as babes in dreams do smile and sometimes fall a weeping
So I awaked as wise this while as when I fell a sleeping

Hey nonny, nonny, oh, hey nonny, nonny
Hey nonny, nonny, oh, hey nonny, nonnie
Hey nonny, nonny, oh, hey nonny, nonny
Hey nonny, nonny, oh, hey nonny, nonnie

Say man, are you down for doing something positive in the community?
No, I don't really think I'll do that again
Well, ain't you worried about doing the right thing?
Well, I don't care if I hey-nonny-nonny-nonny, oh, nonny-nonny-nonny
Hey-nonny-nonny-nonny, oh, nonny-nonny-nonny

Beauty sat bathing by a spring where fairest shades did hide her
The winds blew calm, the birds did sing, the cool streams ran beside her
My wanton thoughts enticed mine eye to see what was forbidden
But better memory said "fie" so vain desire was chidden

Hey nonny, nonny, oh, hey nonny, nonny
Hey nonny, nonny, oh, hey nonny, nonny
Hey nonny, nonny, oh, hey nonny, nonny
Hey nonny, nonny, hey nonny, nonnie

Hey nonny, nonny, hey nonny, nonny
Hey nonny, nonny, hey nonny, nonny
Hey nonny, nonny, oh, hey nonny, nonny
Hey nonny, nonny, hey nonny, nonny

Hey nonny, nonny, oh (hey nonny, nonny, oh)
Oh nonny, nonny (oh nonny, nonny)
Hey nonny, nonnie (hey nonny, nonnie)
Oh, nonny (oh, nonny)
