MAID GAED TAE THE MILL



The maid gaed tae the mill ae nicht

sae wanton, sae wanton

The maid gaed tae the mill ae night

Hi sae wanton she

The maid gaed tae the mill ae night

She swore by moon and stars sae bricht

That she would get her corn grun'

Mill and multure free



Then oot an' cam' the miller's man (3x)

Says he I'll dae the best I can

Fir tae get her corn grun'



He's laid her doon upon a sack

Her maidenhead's gaed wi' a crack

Richt well she got her corn grun'



It's easy up and easy doon

She scarce could tell her corn was grun'

Richt well she got her corn grun'



When twenty weeks were passed and gone

This fair young maid grew pale and wan

Fir gettin' a' her corn grun'



When forty weeks were passed and gone

This fair young maid brought forth a son

Because she'd gat her corn grun'



This young man maun hae a nurse

This young man he'll draw oot his purse

Because he has her corn grun'
