Dainty Davie
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It was in and through the window broad
Weel the pleasure I might know
The sweetest kiss that ever I got
Was from my dainty Davie
CHORUS :
Leeze me on thy curly pow
Bonnie Davie, dainty Davie
Leeze me on thy curly pow
He was my dainty Davie
'Twas doon among my faither's pease
In below the cherry trees
There he kissed me as he pleased
He was my dainty Davie
CHORUS
While being pursued by a dragoon
Intae my bed he was lain doon
Weel I wat he was worth the room
He was my dainty Davie
CHORUS
