The first place that I saw my love, it was at a ball |
|
I looked at her, I gazed at her, far above them all |
|
But aye she looked on me with scorn and disdain |
|
And the bonny wee lassie's answer was to no come again |
|
Was to no come again |
|
And the bonny wee lassie's answer was to no come again |
|
The next place that I saw my love, it was at a wake |
|
I looked at her, I gazed at her, I thought my heart would break |
|
But aye she looked on me with scorn and disdain |
|
And the bonnie wee lassie's answer was to no come again |
|
Was to no come again |
|
And the bonny wee lassie's answer was to not come again |
|
It being six months after, a little or above |
|
When Cupid shot his arrow and he's wounded my true love |
|
He's wounded her severely which caused her to complain |
|
And she wrote to me a letter sayin' |
|
"You might come again" Sayin' "You might come again" |
|
And she wrote to me a letter, sayin' "You might come again" |
|
Well, I wrote her back an answer for to let her know |
|
While life was in my body t'was there I wouldnae go |
|
While life was in my body and while it does remain |
|
I will aye mind the girl who said don't come again |
|
Who said don't come again |
|
I will aye mind the girl who said don't come again |
|
So come all you pretty young fair maids a warning take by me |
|
Never slight a young man wherever you may be |
|
For if you do you're sure to rue and cause you to complain |
|
And you'll aye rue the day that you said, |
|
"Don't come again" You said "Don't come again" |
|
And you'll aye mind the day that you said, "Don't come again" |
