Page:Duke of Gordon's three daughters (7).pdf/5

 You are welcome bonny Jeannie Gordon,

You are dearly welcome to me;

You are welcome, dear Jeanie Gordon,

But away with your Ogilvie.

Now over the seas went the Captain,

As a soldier under command;

But a messenger soon followed after,

Which caused a countermand.

Come home now, pretty Captain Ogilvie,

To enjoy your brother's land;

Come home now, pretty Captain Ogilvie,

You're the heir of Northumberland.

O what does this mean? says the Captain,

Where's my brother's land:

Come home now, pretty Captain Ogilvie,

You're the heir of Northumberland.

O what does this mean? says the Captain,

Where's my brother's children three?

O they are all dead and buried,

The lands are all ready for thee.

Then hoist up your sails brave Captain,

And let's be jovial and free;

I'll go home and have my estate,

And then my dear Jeannie I'll see.

He soon came to bonny castle Gordon,

And then at the gate stood he;

The Porter cried out with a loud shout,

Here comes Captain Ogilvie!
