Scottish girlhood, and quite risque, too; Ray Fisher knew
only
these
TEXT:
D G D
Cold winter was
turnin' o'er moor and o'er mountain
G D E7 A7
And
wild was the surge on the dark rollin' sea
D G
D
When I met aboot daybreak a bonnie young lassie
G D A7
D
That asked me the road and the miles tae Dundee
I said, "My young lassie, I canna weel
tell ye
The road and the distance I ne'er can weel ga[uge
But if ye'll permit me tae gang
a wee bittie
I'll show ye the road and the miles tae Dundee
At once she consented
and gave me her air-m
[arm
Nae a word did I spear
wham that lassie might be
[spare whom
She appeared like an angel in
feature and for-m
As she walked by my side on the road tae Dundee
At length with the
howe of strath Martin behind us
[hollow of the Martin River valley
The
spires o' the toon in full full view we could see
Then bravely I bid my fareweel tae the
lassie
Ere I pairted wi' her on the road tae Dundee
So I took the gowd pin frae the
scarf on my bosom
And said "Keep ye this in remembrance o' me
So in times to come ye'll
the laddie remember
That walked by your side on the road tae Dundee
So here's tae
the lassie, I ne'er will forget her
Tae ilk a young laddie that's list'nin' tae me
Never
beswear to convoy a young lassie
Though it's only to show her the road tae
Dundee
