[ 5 ]
And she’s cast aff her high heel’d shoes,
put on a pair of laigh ones,
And she's away with Duncan Graham,
to go amang the brechans :
O my bonny Lizie Bailie,
thy mother cannot want thee;
And if thou go with Duncan Graham,
there’ll be a Killicrankie.
Hold your tongue my mother dear,
with your folly let me be,
Should I not fancy Duncan Graham,
’fore all the men I see.
Who is it that has done this turn ?
or who hath done this deed ?
A minister it’s, father, she says,
lives at the Red Burn-bridge.
A minister, daughter, he says,
a minister for mister;
O hold your tongue my father dear,
he marry’d first my sister.
So fare you well my daughter dear,
so dearly as I love thee ;
Since thou wilt go with Duncan Graham,
thou'lt get no gear from me.
O fare you well my father dear,
also my sister Betty :
O fare you well my mother dear
I leave you all completely.
