the bonnie lass o'fyvie - noel mcloughlin lyrics
there once was a troop o’ irish dragoons
cam marching doon through fyvie-o
and the captains fall in love wi’ a very bonnie l-ss
and her name it was cad pretty peggy-o
o come doon the stairs, pretty peggy, my dear
come doon the stairs, pretty peggy-o
come doon the stairs, comb back your yellow hair
bid a long farewell to your daddy-o
there’s many a bonnie l-ss in the howe o auchterless
there’s many a bonnie l-ss in the garioch
there’s many a bonnie jean in the streets of aiberdeen
but the floor o’ them aw lyes in fyvie-o
o come doon the stairs, pretty peggy, my dear
come doon the stairs, pretty peggy-o
come doon the stairs, comb back your yellow hair
bid a long farewell to your daddy-o
o i’ll give you ribbons, love, and i’ll give you rings
i’ll give you a necklace of amber-o
i’ll give you a silken petticoat with flounces to the knee
if you’ll convey me doon to your chamber-o
what would your mother think if she heard the guineas clink
and saw the haut-boys marching all before you o
o little would she think gin she heard the guineas clink
if i followed a soldier laddie-o
o come doon the stairs, pretty peggy, my dear
come doon the stairs, pretty peggy-o
come doon the stairs, comb back your yellow hair
bid a long farewell to your daddy-o
i never did intend a soldier’s lady for to be
a soldier shall never enjoy me-o
i never did intend to gae tae a foreign land
and i never will marry a soldier-o
