Don't Come Again

The first place that I saw my love
It was at a ball
I looked at her, I gazed at her
Far above them all but aye she looked on me
With scorn and disdain
And the bonny wee lassie's answer
Was to no come again was to no come again
And the bonny wee lassie's answer
Was to no come again

The next place that I saw my love
It was at a wake
I looked at her, I gazed at her
I thought my heart would break
But aye she looked on me
With scorn and disdain
And the bonnie wee lassie's answer
Was to no come again was to no come again
And the bonny wee lassie's answer
Was to not come again

It being six months after, a little or above
When Cupid shot his arrow and
He's wounded my true love
He's wounded her severely which
Caused her to complain
And she wrote to me a letter sayin'
"You might come again" Sayin'
"You might come again"
And she wrote to me a letter
Sayin' "You might come again"

Well, I wrote her back an answer
For to let her know
While life was in my body
T'was there I wouldnae go
While life was in my body
And while it does remain
I will aye mind the girl
Who said don't come again
Who said don't come again
I will aye mind the girl
Who said don't come again

So come all you pretty young fair
Maids a warning take by me
Never slight a young man wherever you may be
For if you do you're sure to
Rue and cause you to complain
And you'll aye rue the day that you said
"Don't come again" You said
"Don't come again"
And you'll aye mind the day that you said
"Don't come again"
