planxty - johnny cope lyrics
hey johnny cope are ye walking yet or are your drums a
beating yet
if ye were walking i would wait tae gang tae the coals
in the morning
cope sent a challenge from dunbar saying charlie meet
me an’ ye daur

the morning
when charlie looked his letter upon he drew his sword
the scabbard from

in the morning

baithe fire and sword
and dinna flee like a frichted bird that’s chased frae

tae hae a horse in readiness tae flee awa in the
morning
hey johnny cope are ye walking yet or are your drums a
beating yet
if ye were walking i would wait tae gang tae the coals
