Betsy Belle And Mary Gray - Cherish The Ladies[00:00:00]
Oh Betsy Belle and Mary Gray [00:00:17]
They were two bonnie lasses[00:00:19]
They biggit a bower on yon Burnside[00:00:21]
And theeked it o'er with rashes[00:00:23]
Fair Betsy Belle[00:00:26]
I loved so well and thought[00:00:27]
I ne'er could alter[00:00:28]
But Mary Gray's two cheeky eyes caused[00:00:30]
All my fancy falter[00:00:33]
Oh Betsy Belle and Mary Gray [00:00:35]
They were two bonnie lasses[00:00:37]
They biggit a bower on yon Burnside[00:00:40]
And theeked it o'er with rashes[00:00:42]
Betsy's hair's like flaxen gold [00:00:45]
She smiles like a May morning[00:00:47]
When Phoebus starts from Thoetus lap[00:00:49]
The hills with rays adorning[00:00:51]
White is her hair soft is her hand [00:00:54]
Her waist and feet flow gently[00:00:56]
With every grace she can command [00:00:58]
Her lips I vow are dainty[00:01:00]
Oh Betsy Belle and Mary Gray [00:01:04]
They were two bonnie lasses[00:01:06]
They biggit a bower on yon Burnside[00:01:08]
And theeked it o'er with rashes[00:01:10]
Mary's locks are like the crow [00:01:33]
Her eyes like diamond's glances[00:01:35]
She's aye so clean red up and raw [00:01:37]
She kills whene'er she dances[00:01:39]
Blithe as a kid with wit and will [00:01:42]
She's blooming tight and tall is[00:01:44]
And guides her airs so graceful still [00:01:46]
Oh Jove she's like thy palace[00:01:48]
Oh Betsy Belle and Mary Gray [00:01:52]
They were two bonnie lasses[00:01:54]
They biggit a bower on yon Burnside[00:01:56]
And theeked it o'er with rashes[00:01:58]
Young Betsy Belle and Mary Gray [00:02:01]
Ye unco saer oppress us[00:02:03]
Our fancies fee between ye two [00:02:05]
Ye are such bonnie lassies[00:02:07]
Woe's me for both I cannot get [00:02:10]
To one by law we're stinted[00:02:12]
Then I'll draw straws and take my fate[00:02:14]
And be with one contented[00:02:16]
Oh Betsy Belle and Mary Gray [00:02:37]
They were two bonnie lassies[00:02:39]
They biggit a bower on yon Burnside[00:02:40]
And theeked it o'er with rashes[00:02:43]
But Betsy Belle nor Mary Gray could quell[00:02:45]
My fancy ever[00:02:48]
The plague came from the burrows town [00:02:50]
It slew them both together[00:02:52]
