| [00:00.30] | Oh, waly, waly up the bank and waly, waly down the brae, |
| [00:08.92] | And waly, waly up burnside where I and my love used to go. |
| [00:16.03] | I was a lady of high renown that lived in the North country; |
| [00:24.70] | I was a lady of high renown when Jamie Douglas courted me. |
| [00:35.80] | And when we came to Glasgow town, it was a comely sight to see, |
| [00:45.08] | My lord was clad in the velvet green and I myself in cramasie. |
| [00:53.68] | And when my eldest son was born and set upon his nurse's knee, |
| [01:02.69] | I was the happiest woman born and my good lord, he loved me. |
| [01:13.63] | There came a man into our house and Jamie Lockhart was his name |
| [01:21.73] | And it was told unto my lord that I did lie in bed with him. |
| [01:29.95] | There came another to our house and he was no good friend to me; |
| [01:38.06] | He put Jamie's shoes beneath my bed and bade my good lord come and see. |
| [01:49.10] | Oh woe be unto thee, Blackwood, and an ill death may you die, |
| [01:56.04] | You were the first and the foremost man that parted my good lord and I. |
| [02:03.89] | And when my lord came to my room this great falsehood for to see, |
| [02:12.75] | He turned him round all with a scowl and not one word would he speak to me. |
| [02:23.04] | “Come up, come up, now Jamie Douglas, come up the stair and dine with me, |
| [02:31.61] | I'll set you on a chair of gold and court you kindly on my knee.” |
| [02:40.33] | “When cockleshells turn silver bells and fishes fly from tree to tree, |
| [02:50.17] | When frost and snow turn fire to burn it's I'll come up and dine with thee.” |
| [03:00.86] | Oh woe be unto thee, Blackwood, and an ill death may you die, |
| [03:08.22] | You were the first and the foremost man that parted my good lord and I. |
| [03:15.02] | And when my father he had word my good lord had forsaken me, |
| [03:24.06] | He sent fifty of his brisk dragoons to fetch me home to my own country. |
| [03:34.27] | O had I wist when first I kissed that love should been so ill to win, |
| [03:44.72] | I'd locked my heart in a cage of gold and pinned it with a silver pin. |
| [03:53.04] | You think that I am like yourself and lie with each one that I see, |
| [04:02.85] | But I do swear by Heavens high, I never loved a man but thee. |
| [04:14.44] | 'Tis not the frost that freezes fell, nor blowing snow's inclemency, |
| [04:23.09] | 'Tis not such cold that makes me cry, but my love's heart grown cold to me. |
| [04:31.82] | O waly, waly, love is bonnie a little while when first it's new, |
| [04:42.58] | But love grows old and waxes cold and fades away like morning dew. |
| [00:00.30] | Oh, waly, waly up the bank and waly, waly down the brae, |
| [00:08.92] | And waly, waly up burnside where I and my love used to go. |
