| Dumbarton's Drums |
|
Dumbarton's drums, they sound so bonnie And they remind me of my Johnnie Such fond delight doth steal upon me When Johnnie kneels and kisses me. Across the fields o' bounding heather Dumbarton tolls the hour of pleasure A song of love that's without measure When Johnnie sings his songs to me. 'Tis he alone that can delight me His roving eye, it doth invite me And when his tender arms enfold me The blackest night doth turn and flee. My Johnnie is a handsome laddie And though he is Dumbarton's caddie Some day I'll be a captain's lady When Johnnie tends his vows to me. |
