The Bonnie Lass O' Fyvie |
Well, there once was troop o' Irish dragoons |
Cam' marchin' doon through Fyvie O |
Captain’s fa’en in love wi' anither bonnie quine |
Oh the name that she had was pretty Peggy O |
«Oh come runnin' doon yer stairs, pretty Peggy, my dear |
Come runnin' doon yer stairs, pretty Peggy O |
Come runnin' doon yer stairs, tie back yer yellow hair |
Tak' a last fareweel tae yer daddie O |
Well, it’s braw, it’s braw captain’s lady for tae be |
It’s braw tae be a captain’s lady O |
Braw tae rine and rant, aye tae follow wi' the camp |
Oh an' march when yer captain, he is ready O |
Now the colonel, he cried, «Mount, boys, mount, boys, mount» |
Oh the captain, he cried, «Tarry O |
Tarry for a while, for anither day or twa |
Just tae see if this bonnie lass will marry O» |
Oh but syne e’er we cam' up tae Bethelnie toon |
Wir captain we had for tae carry O |
An' syne e’er we cam' up tae bonnie Aberdeen |
Oh wir captain we had for tae bury O |
Well, there’s mony’s a bonnie lassie in the howe o' Auchterless |
There’s mony’s a bonnie dame in the gearie O |
There’s mony’s a bonnie Jean in the toon o' Aberdeen |
But the flo’er o' them a' bides in Fyvie O |
Well, it’s green grow the birks on bonnie Ythan side |
An' low lie the Lowlands o' Fyvie O |
The captain’s name was Ned, an' he died for a maid |
Oh he died for the sodger lass o' Fyvie |
Aye, there once was troop o' Irish dragoons |
Cam' marchin' doon through Fyvie O |
And the captain’s fa’en in love wi' anither bonnie quine |
Oh the name that she had was pretty Peggy O |
Fyvie O |
