[Verse 1]
To see Mad Tom of Bedlam
Ten thousand miles I travelled
Maudlin goes on dirty toes
For to save her shoes from gravel

[Chorus]
Yet will 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 nor money

[Verse 2]
I went to Pluto's kitchen
To break me fast one mornin'
And there I got souls pipin' hot
That on the spit were turnin'

[Chorus]
Yet will 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 nor money

[Verse 3]
My staff has murdered giants
My pack a long knife carries
To cut mince pies from children's thighs
With which to feed the fairies
[Chorus]
Yet will 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 nor money

[Verse 4]
His spirit hot as lightning
Did on that journey guide me
The sun did shake and the pale moon quake
When e'er they did espy me

[Chorus]
Yet will 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 nor money

[Verse 5]
No gypsy, slut nor doxy
Shall take me Mad Tom from me
I'll dance all night and with stars fight
But the fray it shall become me

[Chorus]
Yet will 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 nor money
[Verse 1]
To see Mad Tom of Bedlam
Ten thousand miles I travelled
Maudlin goes on dirty toes
For to save her shoes from gravel

[Chorus]
Yet will 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 nor money
