Mad Tom

Did you hear Mad Tom of Bedlam

Ten thousand miles I'd travel

Mad Maudlin walks on dirty toes

To save her shoes from gravel

But still I sing Bonnie Boys, Bonnie Mad Boys

Bedlam Boys are Bonnie

For they all go bare, and they live in the air

And they want no drink no money

I went down to Satan's kitchen

To break my fast one morning

And there I saw souls piping hot

Upon the spit a-turning

But still I sing Bonnie Boys, Bonnie Mad Boys

Bedlam Boys are Bonnie

For they all go bare, and they live in the air

And they want no drink no money

My staff has murdered giants

Long pack, my knife has carries

To slice mince pies from children's thighs

Which to feed the fairies

But still I sing Bonnie Boys, Bonnie Mad Boys

Bedlam Boys are Bonnie

For they all go bare, and they live in the air

And they want no drink no money

And the spirit has white as lightning

Did on my journey guide me

And the sun did shake and the pale moon quake

Where ever they did spy me, yeah

But still I sing Bonnie Boys, Bonnie Mad Boys

Bedlam Boys are Bonnie

For they all go bare, and they live in the air

And they want no drink no money

I said, still I sing Bonnie Boys, Bonnie Mad Boys

Bedlam Boys are Bonnie

For they all go bare, and they live in the air

And they want no drink no money
