[intro]
the drums of war were sounding far
when johnnie cope cam tae dunbar
when johnnie cope cam tae dunbar
upon a misty morning

[verse 1]
cope sent a a message tae dunbar
said; “charlie meet me if you daur
and i’ll learn you the arts of war
if you’ll meet me in the morning”

[chorus]
hey johnnie cope are you wauking yet
or are your drums a*beating yet?
if you were wauking i would wait
tae gang tae the coals in the morning

[verse 2]
when charlie looked o’ th’ letter upon
he drew his sword the scabbard from
“come follow me my merry men
and we’ll meet johnnie cope in the morning”

[chorus]
hey johnnie cope are you wauking yet
or are your drums a*beating yet?
if you were wauking i would wait
tae gang tae the coals in the morning
[verse 2]
when johnnie cope he heard o’ this
he thought it wouldn’ae be amiss
to hae a horse in readiness
to flee awa’ in the morning

[chorus]
hey johnnie cope are you wauking yet
or are your drums a*beating yet?
if you were wauking i would wait
tae gang tae the coals in the morning

when johnnie cope tae dunbar came
they spiered at him, “where’s a’ your men?”
“the deil confound me gin i ken
for i left them a’ this morning.”

hey johnnie cope are you wauking yet
or are your drums a*beating yet?
if you were wauking i would wait
tae gang tae the coals in the morning

“faith”, quo johnnie, “i had sic fegs
wi’ their claymores and their philabegs
if i face them again deil brak ma legs
so i wish you a’ good morning.”
[chorus]
hey johnnie cope are you wauking yet
or are your drums a*beating yet?
if you were wauking i would wait
tae gang tae the coals in the morning

hey johnnie cope are you wauking yet
or are your drums a*beating yet?
if you were wauking i would wait
tae gang tae the coals in the morning
