Twas on a simmers evenin aa went oot tae tack the air An cummin roon bi Tarlin toon aa spied a lovely pair The youth was tall an handsome the maid was fair tae see An aa kent their destination wisnae far fae Corrichree
When haff roads up the avenue they sat doon tae tak a rest He took her in his airms sayin ma dear aa loe ye best Aa maiden ye hae sitten doon an ye"ll aye be maid tae me Bit it"s maid agane ye"ll ne"er walk on the girse o Corrichree
O Sandy lad ye"ll ne"er deny the ill that ye hae din For ma bonnet strings hae broken an ma hair flees wi the win Ma maidenheed his tain a flicht an gaen awa fae me An the session clerk will come tae ken o this nicht at Corrichree
Ach noo ma lass says Sandy ye needna care a fig For there"s monies the bonny lassie that gangs daily oure the rig There"s monies the bonny lassie aye an jist as guid as ye Gangs maiden like for aa tae see oure the rigs o Corrichree
Weel he comes doon in the evenin jist as aften as he can He comes doon in the evenin jist tae see his bonny Ann They tell their tale bout auld lang syne whaur naebody dis them see Bit ye"ll easy fin oot aa their beds on the girse o Corrichree.
