Lassie wi the Yellow Coatie



Lassie wi the yellow coatie

Will ye wed a moorland jockie

Lassie wi the yellow coatie

Will ye busk and gang wi me



I ha meal and milk in plenty

I ha kale and cakes fee dainty

I've a but an ben fee gentry

But I want a wife like thee



Tho my mallen be but small

Little gold I hae to show

I've a heart without a flaw

And I'd gie it all tae thee



Haste ye lassie tae my bossom

While the roses are in blossem

Time is precious, dinna lose them

Flo'ers will fade and so will ye
