In Perth there lived a bonny lad,

A brewer to his trade o,

And he has courted Peggy Roy,

A rum and handsome maid o.

—She’s a rum one fal de reed'e ay d &c,

He courted her for seven long years,

All for to gain her favour.

But there came a lad out of Edinr. town.

And he swore that he would have her.

Wilt thou go along with me,

Wilt thou go my honey ?

And wilt thou go along with me,

And leave your own dear Johnie
