Andrew Lammie

Traditional

[Verse 1]
At Fyvie's gates there grows a flower
It grows both broad and bonnie
A daisy in the midst of it
Its name is Andrew Lammie

[Verse 2]
"Oh, 'gin that flower were in my breast
For the love I bear the laddie
So blithe and merry I would be
And kiss my Andrew Lammie"

[Verse 3]
"Love, I must go to Edinburgh
Love, I must go and leave thee"
She sighed full sore and said no more
But, "Oh, 'gin I were with thee"

[Verse 4]
"I'll buy my love a wedding gown
My love I'll buy it bonnie"
"But I'll be gone ere you come back
How I love thee, Andrew Lammie"

[Verse 5]
"Love pines away, love dwines away
And love decayed my body
And love crept in at my bed-foot
And he took possession of me"

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 6]
Her brother beat her wondrous sore
Till the strokes they were not canny
And he broke her back in yon hall door
For loving Andrew Lammie

[Verse 7]
"Oh, mother go and make my bed
And lay my head to Fyvie
For it's there I'll lie and there I'll die
For loving Andrew Lammie"

[Verse 8]
Sin' he's come back from Edinburgh
To the bonnie house of Fyvie
He's turned his face to the northeast
To look for Tifty's Annie

[Verse 9]
"Oh, east and west where'er I go
My love she's always with me
Oh, east and west where'er I go
My love she dwells in Fyvie"

[Verse 10]
"Oh, it's manys the time I've walked at night
And never was I weary
But now that I must walk alone
For I will not see my deary"
