[Eb]
Come [F] bonnie lass, lie near me, and let the brandy cheer ye,
[C] For the road fae Prifety, Falkirk's land, [Eb] cold and wet [F] and weary.
My trade it is the weaving, [Bb] in the bonnie toon the [C] leavin',
And we'll drink our health to the farmer's dame, till by o'er Clotham on.
You can see them are the lads o' the fair, lads fae the forth in the cabin water,
Workin' lads and lads with gie, lads what sell you the brother's daughter.
Soldiers back fae the German [Cm] wars, peddlers up fae the border,
[Bb] And lassies we have [G] nigh for meir than the [Bb] kye, [Eb] at the trist and [C] fay at Falkirk.

We'll tack the last o' the sillag, [Bb] and buy [Eb] ourselves a chill on [C] tea,
