Put On Your Old Grey Bonnet Lyrics

On an old far house veranda there sat Silas and Marinda dreamin` of the days gone by
He said deary don`t be weary you`re always bright and cheery
Now a tear did dim your eye
She said they`re not tears of sadness Silas they are tears of gladness
It was fifty years ago the day we wed
Then the old man`s dim eyes brighten and his old heart it lighten
As he turned to her and said
Put on your old grey bonnet with all the blue ribbons on it
While I hitch all dovin` to the shade
Through those fields of clover you`ll ride up to Dover on our golden wedding day
Put on your old grey bonnet...
Put on your old grey bonnet...
On our golden wedding day
