GUEST,Lucia Garner Lyr Req: Tibbie Dunbar (Robert Burns, Jim McLean) (47) RE: Lyr Req: Tibbie Dunbar 07 Nov 09


Here are the words of "Sweet Tibby Dunbar"" from the album "Second Wind" sung by Howling Gael .

O Wilt thou go we' me sweet Tibby Dunbar
O wilt thou go we' me sweet Tibby Dunbar?
We'll ride on a horse or be drawn in a car,
Or walk by my side sweet Tibby Dunbar.
I care nae your daddy his land or his money.
I care nae your kin sae high and sae lordly.
But say you'll be wi' me for better or waur
And come in your coatie sweet Tibby Dunbar.

I've naething to offer in siller or land.
What man can determine the price of your hand?
But gie me consent, we'll be richer by far.
O wilt thou go wi' me sweet Tibby Dunbar?
O wilt thou be known as a poor beggar's lady,
And sleep in the heather rolled up in my plaidie?
The sky for a roof and your candle a star.
My love for a fire, sweet Tibby Dunbar.
