lyrics

O wilt thou go with me, sweet Tibbie Dunbar?
O wilt thou go with me, sweet Tibbie Dunbar?
Wilt thou ride on a horse or be drawn in a car
Or walk by my side, sweet Tibbie Dunbar?

I care not thy daddy, his lands and his money,
I care not thy kin, so high and so lordly,
But say thou wilt have me for better or waur
And come in thy coatie, sweet Tibbie Dunbar.

I offer thee nothing of silver or land,
What man can determine the price of thy hand?
But give me consent, we’d be richer by far,
Wilt thou go with me, sweet Tibbie Dunbar?

O wilt thou be known as a poor beggar’s lady
And sleep in the heather rolled up in my plaidie,
The sky for a roof and thy candle a star,
And my love for a fire, sweet Tibbie Dunbar?

O wilt thou go with me, sweet Tibbie Dunbar?
O wilt thou go with me, sweet Tibbie Dunbar?
Wilt thou ride on a horse or be drawn in a car
Or walk by my side, sweet Tibbie Dunbar?
