theniel menzies' bonie mary
air—“the ruffian's rant,” or “roy's wife.”
in in by the brig o' dye,
at darlet we a blink did tarry;
as day was dawnin in the sky,
we drank a health to bonie mary.
chorus.—theniel menzies' bonie mary,
theniel menzies' bonie mary,
charlie grigor tint his pidie,
kissin' theniel's bonie mary.
her een sae bright, her brow sae white,
her haffet locks as brown's a berry;
and aye they dimpl't wi' a smile,
the rosy cheeks o' bonie mary.
theniel menzies' bonie mary, &c.
we p a' danc'd the lee-ng day,
till piper ds were wae and weary;
but charlie gat the spring to pay
for kissin theniel's bonie mary.
theniel menzies' bonie mary, &c.
