the road and the miles to dundee - bruce davies lyrics

Loading...

cold winter was howling o’er moorland and mountain
and wild was the surge of the dark rolling sea
when i met about daybreak a bonnie young l-ssie
who asked me the road and the miles to dundee

said i, “my young l-ssie, i canna weel tell ye
the road and the distance i canna weel gie
but if you’ll permit me to gang a wee bittie
i’ll show you the road and the miles to dundee”

the l-ssie consented and gie me her airm
not a word did i speir wha the l-ssie micht be
she appeared like an angel in feature and form
as she walked by my side on the road to dundee

at length wi’ the howe o’ strathmartine behind us
the spires o’ the town in full view we could see
she said, “gentle laddie, i can ne’er forget ye
for showing me far on the road to dundee”

so here’s to the l-ssie, i ne’er can forget her
and like a young l-ssie who’s listening to me
o never be sweir to convoy a young l-ssie
though it’s only to show her the road to dundee
to show her the road and the miles to dundee
