269 . Song—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.
