Sorry, Richie. I've just noriced that the CD notes to "1951 Edinburgh People's Festival Ceilidh" include a transcription of what Jessie Murray sings. I should have looked before posting my own transcription. It's basically the same as mine but with more attention to how she pronounces words ("dwellin" etc., for example, and a few more Scots forms like "coorted"). There may also be a transcription in the CD notes to Lucy Stewart's ballads, but I just have that one on MP3.
