Bonnie George Campbell

By The Ballad

1.HIGH upon Highlands,

and low upon Tay,

Bonnie George Campbell

rade out on a day.

2.Saddled and bridled

and gallant rade he;

Hame cam his guid horse,

but never cam he.

3.Out cam his auld mither

greeting fu’ sair,

And out cam his bonnie bride

riving her hair.

4.Saddled and bridled

and booted rade he;

Toom hame cam the saddle,

but never came he.

5.“My meadow lies green,

and my corn is unshorn,

My barn is to build,

and my babe is unborn.”

6.Saddled and bridled

and booted rade he;

Toom hame cam the saddle,

but never cam he.
