Chorus:
It's over the mountains and over the main
Through Gibraltar tae France and tae Spain
Wi' a feather in your bonnet and a kilt aboon your knee
So 'list my bonnie laddie and come awa wi' me

There was twa recruitin' sergeants came frae the Black Watch
Through markets and through fairs, some recruits for tae catch
But a' that they 'listed was forty and twa
So 'list my bonnie laddie and come awa

Its in by the barn and out by the byre
This ole farmer, he thinks ye'll never tire
It's a slavery job o' low degree
So 'list my bonnie laddie and come awa with me

Now laddie ye dinna ken the danger that ye're in
If yer horses was to fleg, and yer hoosin' was to run
This greedy ole fairmer, he wouldna pay yer fee
So 'list my bonnie laddie and come awa with me

Wi' your tattie pourin's and yer meal and kale
Yer soor sooin' sourin's and yer ill-brewed ale
Wi' yer b___ermilk and wye, and yer breid fired raw
So 'list my bonnie laddie and come awa

Now laddie if ye've got a sweetheart or a bairn
Ye'll easily get rid o' that ill spun yarn
Twa rattles o' the drum and that'll pay it all
So 'list my bonnie laddie and come awa

Tattie pourin's: water in which potatoes have been boiled.
Soor sooin' sourin's: sowens, a dish made by steeping and
fermenting the husks, seeds, or siftings of oats in water, then
boiling; likely a poor substitute for beer.

(as sung by The McCalmans)
