Producers for bonnie: george martin 

Recorded in 1988 for george martin's production of dylan thomas's play 'under milk wood'. bonnie guested with a host of other welsh stars, including anthony hopkins and tom jones. lyrics taken from careful listening. 

I loved a man who's name was tom 

He's strong as a bear and two yards long 

I loved a man who's name was dick 

He was big as a barrel and three feet thick 

And I loved a man who's name was harry 

Six feet tall and sweet as a cherry 

But the one I love best, awake or asleep 

Was little willie wee, and he's six feet deep 

Oh tom, dick and harry were three fine men 

And I'll never have such loving again 

Little willie wee who took me on his knee 

Little willie weasel was the man for me

Now men from every parish 'round 

Run after me and roll me on the ground 

But whenever I love another man back 

Johnny from the hill, or sailing jack 

I always think as they do what they please 

Of tom, dick and harry who are tall as trees 

But most I think when I'm by their side 

Of little willie wee who downed and died 

Oh tom, dick and harry were three fine men 

And I'll never have such loving again 

Little willie wee who took me on his knee 

Little willie weasel was the man for me 

Little willie weasel was the man for me

Now when farmers boys on the first fair day 

Come down from the hills to drink and be gay 

Before the sun sinks, I lie there in their arms 

For they're good bad boys from the lonely farms 

And I always think as we tumble into bed 

Of little willie wee, who's dead, dead, dead
