Bonnie Dundee (1973 Recording) |
Tae the Lords o' convention 'twas Claverhouse spoke |
E’er the King’s Crown go down there are crowns to be Broke |
So each caviler who loves honor and me Let him follow the bonnets o' Bonnie Dundee |
Chorus: |
Come fill up my cup, come fill up can |
Come saddle my horses and call out my men |
Unhook the West Port and let us gae free |
For it’s up with the bonnets o' Bonnie Dundee |
Dundee he is mounted and rides up the street |
The bells tae ring backwards, the drums tae are beat |
But the provost douce man says, 'Just let it be.' |
When the toon is well rid o' that devil Dundee |
Chorus |
There are hills beyond Pentland and lands beyond Forth |
Be there lords in the south, there are chiefs in the |
North |
There are brave downie wassles three thousand times |
Three |
Cry hey for the bonnets o' Bonnie Dundee |
Chorus |
Then awa tae the hill to the lee and the rocks |
Ere I own a usurper I’ll crouch with the fox |
So tremble false wigs in the midst of yer glee |
For you’ve no seen the last of my bonnets and me Chorus |
