Lassie / Roamin' In The Gloamin'

verse 1

I love a lassie, a bonnie Hielan' lassie,

If you saw her you would fancy as well:

I met her in September, popped the question in November,

So I'll soon be havin' her a' to ma-sel'.

Her faither has consented, so I'm feelin' quite contented

'Cause I've been and sealed the bargain wi' a kiss.

I sit and weary weary, when I think aboot ma deary,

An' you'll always hear me singing this---

Chorus

I love a lassie, a bonnie bonnie lassie,

She's as pure as a lily in the dell,

She's sweet as the heather, The bonnie bloomin' heather

Mary, my Scots bluebell

verse 2

I love a lassie, a bonnie Hielan' lassie

She can warble like like a blackbird in the dell.

She's an angel ev'ry Sunday, but a jolly lass on Monday:

She's as modest as her namesake the bluebell.

She's nice, she's neat, she's tidy and I meet her ev'ry Friday:

That's a special nicht, you bet, I never miss.

I'm enchanted, I'm enraptured, since ma heart the darlin'captur'd,

She's intoxicated me with bliss

chorus

verse 3

I love a lassie, a bonnie Hielan' lassie,

I could sit an' let her tease me for a week:

For the way she keeps behavin' well, I never pay for shavin',

'Cause she rubs ma whiskers clean off with her cheek.

And underneath ma bonnet, where the hair wa, there's none on it

For the way she pats ma head has made me bald.

I know she means no harm, for she'll keep me nice and warm,

On the frosty nichts sae very cauld
