tinsmith - twa recruitin' sargents lyrics
[verse 1]
twa recruiting sergeants came frae the black watch
through markets and fairs, some recruits for to catch
but all they enlisted was forty and twa
sae, ‘list me bonnie laddie and come awa’ with me
[chorus]
and it’s over the mountains, over the main
through gibraltar, to france and spain
pit a feather tae your bonnet, and a kilt about your knee
sae, enlist me bonnie laddie and come awa’ with me
[verse 2]
oh now laddie ye dinna ken the danger you’re in
if yer horses was to fleg, or yer owsen was to rin
that greedy ol’ farmer, he wouldna pay your fee
sae ‘list me bonnie laddie and come awa’ with me
[chorus]
and it’s over the mountains, over the main
through gibraltar, to france and spain
there’s a feather in your bonnet, and a kilt about your knee
sae, enlist me bonnie laddie and come awa’ with me
[verse 3]
and its into the barn, and out of the byre
that greedy ol’ farmer thinks you never will tire
it’s a slavery job of low degree
sae, ‘list me bonnie laddie and come awa’ with me
[chorus]
and it’s over the mountains, over the main
through gibraltar, to france and spain
there’s a feather in your bonnet, and a kilt about your knee
sae, enlist me bonnie laddie and come awa’ with me
[tin whistle solo]
[verse 4]
yeah well laddie, do you have a sweetheart at home?
ye’ll easily get rid of that ill-spun yarn
twa rattles on the drum, and that’ll set you free
sae, ‘list me bonnie laddie and come awa’ with me
[chorus]
and it’s over the mountains, over the main
through gibraltar, to france and spain
there’s a feather in your bonnet, and a kilt about your knee
sae, enlist me bonnie laddie and come awa’ with me
[outro]
and it’s over the mountains, over the main
through gibraltar, to france and spain
there’s a feather in your bonnet, and a kilt about your knee
sae, enlist me bonnie laddie and come awa’ with me
and it’s over the mountains
