[verse 1]
go ye not by gallowa
come bide a while, my freen’
i’ll tell ye o the dangers there
beware o sawney bean
beware o sawney bean

[verse 2]
there’s naebody kens that he bides there
for his face is seldom seen
but tae meet his eye is tae meet your fate
at the hands o sawney bean
the hands o sawney bean

[verse 3]
for sawney he has taen a wifе
and he’s hungry bairns tae wean
and hе’s raised them up on the flesh o men
in the cave of sawney bean

[verse 4]
an’ sawney has been well endowed
wi daughters young and lean
and they hae taen their faither’s seed
in the cave of sawney bean
the cave of sawney bean
[verse 5]
an’ sawney’s sons are young an’ strong
and their blades are sharp and keen
tae spill the blood o travellers
wha meet wi sawney bean
wha meet wi sawney bean

[verse 6]
so if you ride from there tae here
be ye wary in between
lest they catch your horse and spill your blood
in the cave o sawney bean
the cave o sawney bean

[verse 7]
they’ll hing ye up an’ cut yer throat
an’ they’ll pick your carcass clean
an’ they’ll uise yer banes tae quiet the weans
in the cave o sawney bean
the cave o sawney bean

[verse 8]
but fear ye not, our captain rides
on an errand o the queen
and he carries the writ of fire and sword
for the head o sawney bean
the head o sawney bean
[verse 9]
they’ve hung them high in edinburgh toun
an’ likewise all their kin
an’ the wind blaws cauld on all their banes
an’ tae h+ll they aw hae gane
an’ tae h+ll they aw hae gane
