Dumbarton's Drums |
My love he is a handsome laddie |
And though he is Dumbarton’s caddie |
Some day I’ll be a captain’s lady |
When Johnnie tends his vows tae me |
Dumbarton’s drums they sound sae bonnie |
When they remind me o' my Johnnie |
What fond delight can steal upon me |
When Johnnie kneels and kisses me |
Across the hills of bounding heather |
Dumbarton tolls the hour of pleasure |
The joy I feel will ken nae measure |
When Johnnie kneels and sings tae me |
Dumbarton’s drums they sound sae bonnie |
When they remind me o' my Johnnie |
What fond delight can steal upon me |
When Johnnie kneels and kisses me |
Tis he alone that can delight me |
His graceful eye it does invite me |
And when his tender arms enfold me |
The blackest night will turn and die |
Dumbarton’s drums they sound sae bonnie |
When they remind me o' my Johnnie |
What fond delight can steal upon me |
When Johnnie kneels and kisses me |
Dumbarton’s drums they sound sae bonnie |
When they remind me o' my Johnnie |
What fond delight can steal upon me |
When Johnnie kneels and kisses me |
