| Gin I were whaur the gaudie rins
|
| Whaur the gaudie rins, whaur the gaudie rins
|
| Gin I were whaur the gaudie rins
|
| At the back o' Bennachie
|
| Oh I niver had but twa richt lads
|
| Aye twa richt lads, twa richt bonnie lads
|
| I niver had but twa richt lads
|
| That dearly courted me
|
| And ane was killed at the laurin' fair
|
| The laurin' fair, at the laurin' fair
|
| Oh ane was killed at the laurin' fair
|
| The ither was droont in the Dee
|
| And I gave to him the haunin' fine
|
| The haunin' fine, the haunin' fine
|
| Gave to him the haunin' fine
|
| His mornin' dressed tae be
|
| Well, he gave to me the linen fine
|
| The linen fine, the linen fine
|
| Gave to me the linen fine
|
| Me windin' sheet tae be
|
| Well, oh gin I were whaur the gaudie rins
|
| Wi' the bonny broom an' the yellow whims
|
| Gin I were whaur the gaudie rins
|
| At the back o' Bennachie
|
| Oh gin I were whaur the gaudie rins
|
| Gin I were whaur the gaudie
|
| At the back o' Bennachie
|
| Aye, oh gin I were whaur the gaudie
|
| Gin I were whaur the gaudie
|
