Songtext von Ca' The Yowes

Chorus: Ca' the yowes tae the knowes Ca' them whaur the heather grows Ca' them whaur the burnie rowes My bonnie dearie As I gaed doon the water side It's there I met my shepherd lad He row'd me sweetly in his plaid And he ca'd me his dearie Will ye gang doon the water side To see the waves sae sweetly glide Beneath the hazels spreading wide? The moon, it shines fu' clearly (Chorus) I was bred up at nae sic school My shepherd lad, to play the fool And all the day to sit in dool And naebody to see me Ye shall get goons and ribbons meet Cauf-leather shune upon your feet And in my airms you'll lie and sleep And ye shall be my dearie (Chorus) If you'll but stand by what you've said I'll go wi' you, my shepherd lad And ye may row me in your plaid And I shall be your dearie (Chorus) 1
