Sweet Tibbie Dunbar


O wilt thou go wi’ me, sweet Tibbie Dunbar?O wilt thou go wi’ me, sweet Tibbie Dunbar?Wilt thou ride on a horse, or be drawn in a car,Or walk by my side, O sweet Tibbie Dunbar?
I care na thy daddie, his lands and his money,I care na thy kin, sae high and sae lordly;But sae that thou’lt hae me for better for waur,And come in thy coatie, sweet Tibbie Dunbar.
