Merry fairs of Falkirk/The Caledonian laddie

The Caledonian Laddie,

Blyth Sandy is a bonny boy
and always is a wooing,
Nor is he e'er too ho'd or coy,
although he is so loving.
Last night he prest me to his cheek.
and vow'd he'd ask my daddy, O,
O dear to wed me he confess'd,
the Caledonian laddie, O,
Chor. O, my bonny, bonny highland boy,
my bonny, bonny Highland lad.
My bonny, bonny Highland laddie O,
my Caledonian laddie, O.

The maidens cry baith far and near
to gain young Sandy over,
But all their art I didna fear.
he winna prove a rover
For sure he tal' me frank and free,
unknown to dad or mammy, O,
He'll marry me ah! nane but me,
the Caledonian laddie, O. O my, &c.

The tother day from Dundee fair,
he brought me hame a bonnet,
A cap and ribbon for my hair,
But mark what soon came on it;
As late at kirk we somewhat stood,
in spite of mam or daddie O!;
He married me, do all I could
the Caledonian laddie, O.O my, &c.
