19 As he was walking up the street,

The city for to view,

O there he' spied a bonny lass

The window looking through.

An Charlie, &c.

Sae light's he jumped up the stair,

And tirled at the pin,

And wha sae ready as hersel,

To let the laddie in.

An' Charlie, &c.

He set his Jenny on his knee,

All in the Highland dress ;

For brawlie well he ken'd the way

To please a bonny lass.

An Charlie, &c.

Its up' yon heathery mountain,

And down yon scroggy glen,

We daur nae gang a milking,

For Charlie and his men.

An' Charlie, &c.

I GAED A WAEFU' GATE YESTREEN.

I GAED a waefu' gate yestreen,

A gate, I fear I'll dearly, rue ;

I gat my death frae twa sweet een;

Twa lovely een o' bonnie blue.
