《The Laird Of Cockpen》歌词

[00:00:00] The Laird Of Cockpen - Mary O'Hara

[00:00:10] The laird o' cockpen he's proud an' he's great

[00:00:14] His mind is ta'en up wi' the things o' the state

[00:00:18] He wanted a wife his braw house to keep

[00:00:21] But favour wi' wooin' was fashious to seek

[00:00:25] Down by the dyke-side a lady did dwell

[00:00:29] At his table head he thocht she'd look well

[00:00:32] M leish's ae dochter o' clavers-ha' lea

[00:00:36] A penniless lass wi' a lang pedigree

[00:00:47] His wig was weel pouther'd and as gude as new

[00:00:51] His waistcoat was white his coat it was blue

[00:00:54] He put on a ring a sword and cock'd hat

[00:00:58] And wha could refuse the laird wi' a' that

[00:01:02] He mounted his mare and he rade cannily

[00:01:05] And rapp'd at the yett o' clavers-ha' lea

[00:01:09] Gae tell mistress jean to come speedily ben

[00:01:12] She's wanted to speak to the laird o' cockpen

[00:01:22] Mistress jean she was makin' the elderflower wine

[00:01:26] An' what brings the laird at sic a like time

[00:01:29] She put aff her apron and on her silk goun

[00:01:32] Her mutch wi' red ribbons and gaed awa' doun

[00:01:39] An' when she cam' ben he bowed fu' low

[00:01:42] An' what was his errand he soon let her know

[00:01:46] Amazed was the laird when the lady said na

[00:01:49] And wi' a laigh curtsie she turned awa'

[00:02:06] Dumfounder'd was he nae sigh did he gie

[00:02:10] He mounted his mare and he rade cannily

[00:02:13] An' aften he thought as he gaed through the glen

[00:02:16] She's daft to refuse the laird o' cockpen
