Just a wee deoch-an'-doris, A wee drap, that's a'. A wee deoch-an'doris, Before we gang awa'. There's a wee wifie waiting, In a wee but-an' ben. If ye can say "It's a braw, bricht, moonlicht nicht," Ye're a' richt, ye ken.

I love a lassie, a bonnie, bonnie lassie, She's as pure as the lily in the dell, She's as sweet as the heather, The bonnie, bloomin' heather, Mary, ma Scotch bluebell.

My bonnie lies over the ocean, My bonnie lies over the sea, My bonnie lies over the ocean, Oh, bring back my bonnie to me.

Bring back, bring back, bring back my bonnie to me, to me Bring back, bring back, oh, bring back my bonnie to me

Gin a body meet a body, Comin' thro' the rye; Gin a body kiss a body, Need a body cry?
