Bleacher Lassie O Kelvinhaugh Songtext

As I gaed out on a fine simmer's evenin A-walkin doun by the Broumielaw It wis thair I spied the fairest lassie She'd cherrie cheeks an a skin like snaw Says I, "My lassie, is it you that wanders All alane by the Broumielaw?" "O, indeed, kind sir, it's the truth I'll tell ye I'm the bleacher lassie on Kelvinhaugh" "O lassie, lassie, dae ye remember The ships that sailed doun the Broumielaw An the sailor laddie wha nou admires The bleacher lassie on Kelvinhaugh?" "O laddie, laddie, I weill remember The ships that sailed doun the Broumielaw But the sailor laddies thae aye got tipsy Wi the bleacher lassie on Kelvinhaugh" "O lassie, lassie, will ye gang wi me An A'll cleid ye up in fine satins braw?" "O indeed, kind sir, I maun plainly tell ye I've a laud o my ain an he's faur awa" "Tis seiven lang years sin a loued a sailor Tis seiven lang years sin he's gaed awa Aye, but anither seiven seiven I wad wait upon him An I'll bleach my claes here on Kelvinhaugh" "O lassie, lassie, ye hae been faithfu An ye've thocht on me whan I'm faur awa Twa herts will surely be rewardit We'll pairt nae mair here on Kelvinhaugh" An it's this couple, thae hae got mairriet An thae keep an alehous atween thaim twa An the sailor laddies thae aa gang drinkin At the bleacher lassie's on Kelvinhaugh
