Put on your old grey bonnet
With the blue ribbon on it,
And we'll hitch old Dobbin to the shay.
Through the fields of clover,
We'll go down to Dover
On our golden weddin' day.

Old grey bonnet,
Ribbon on it,
Old Dobbin, shay.
Fields o' clover,
Down to Dover,
Gold weddin' day.

Put on your old grey bonnet
With the blue ribbon on it,
Hitch old Dobbin to the shay.
Through the fields of clover,
We gotta go down to Dover
On our golden weddin' day.

Old grey bonnet,
Ribbon on it,
Old Dobbin, shay.
Fields o' clover,
Down to Dover,
Gold weddin' day,
Gold weddin' day,
Gold weddin' day,
Gotta go down to Dover on the weddin'day!
