Tune-"Galla Water."
Altho' my bed were in yon muir, / Amang the heather, in my plaidie; / Yet happy, happy would I be, / Had I my dear Montgomerie's Peggy.
When o'er the hill beat surly storms, / And winter nights were dark and rainy; / I'd seek some dell, and in my arms / I'd shelter dear Montgomerie's Peggy.
Were I a baron proud and high, / And horse and servants waiting ready; / Then a' 'twad gie o' joy to me,- / The sharin't with Montgomerie's Peggy.
