the bonnie lass o'fyvie - nils brown lyrics

[verse 1]
well, there once was a troop of irish dragoons
come marchin’ doon through fyvie*o
the captain’s fallen in love with another bonnie one
oh, the name that she had was pretty peggy*o

[verse 2]
“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 farewell to yer daddie*o

[verse 3]
though the colonel, he cried, “oh, mount, boys, mount”
oh, the captain, he cried, “tarry*o
oh, tarry for a whilе, for another day or twa
just to see if this bonnie lass will marry*o”

[verse 4]
long erе we went to oldmeldrum toon
it’s we had to carry our captain*o
and ere we went into bonnie aberdeen
it’s we had our captain to bury*o

[verse 5]
oh, there’s mony a bonnie lassie in the howe of auchterless
there’s mony a bonnie dame in the gairioch*o
there’s mony a bonnie jean in the toon o’ aberdeen
but the flo’er of them all bides in fyvie*o
[verse 6]
well, it’s green grow the birks on the bonnie ythanside
an’ low lie the lowlands o’ fyvie*o
the captain’s name was ned, an’ he died for a maid
an’ he died for the soldier lass o’ fyvie*o
