Jeannie Robertson sang a short lyrical piece from the lassie's side; "My Plaidie's Awa' " which appeared on the Topic LP of her songs 12T96 'Jeannie Robertson'. There was a bonnie lassie, and she was gan to Crieff, She met wi' a butcher laddie, and he was selling beef, But he catched her in his airms, and doon the twa did fa', And the wind blew the bonnie lassie's plaidie awa'. O ma plaidie's awa', and awa' with the wind, Ma plaidie's awa', and it cannae be found. O what will the auld folk, the auld folks, say ava? O I canna say the wind blew my plaidie awa'.
