GUEST,Matthew Edwards Lyr Req: The wind blew my lassie's plaidie away (13) RE: The wind blew my lassie's plaidie away 21 Jan 03


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'.
