The Skye Boat Song
Traditional.
There are two connections. First of all it is about Bonnie Prince Charlie. Secondly the chorus includes, Carry the lad that's a-born to be king/Over the sea to Skye. So after that song, my bonnie (prince Charlie) lies over the ocean!
BTW I've felt bad all of this time bringing up songs that nobody else probably knew and just saying, "Traditional". I'm glad to see someone else doing it.
Cheers, Ben

Don't feel bad, Ben. I know you have a fondness for Scots/Irish Folk songs. They have served you well!
Play on! A.

My Johnny was a Shoemaker
Traditional, done by Steeleye Span.
There are an amazing number of traditional songs with "John" or "Johnny" in the title.
