Any old Scots out there remember this song--perfect for a duet. I would love to have the lyrics/music too! Thanks, Misch

I'm sorry I can't make blue-clicky things (stop me if I'm getting too technical here!), but:

Annie Muir of Trickett, Bok and Muir used to sing Crooked Baubee, but, I dont know if she ever recorded it. I'll look around.

Thank you all so much! But there is a printing error in the lyric page, won't print. So I will do it by hand. What I don't understand is why doesn't this lyric/song come up when I do a search? I tried the "bent bawbie" too and it comes up empty, but it must be there somewhere. I feel like I shouldn't have needed to bother anyone about it, but obviously needed lots of help. So thank you muchly, Misch

Probably because the search elves haven't been fed lately. Seriously, none of us really know. Sometimes the magic works, sometimes it doesn't. You might also look for baubie instead of bawbie.
