Come with me up to old Dumfries, | |
For to meet there the Anvil Priest, | |
Now the two of us are sixteen, | |
We’ll be headed for Gretna Green | |
In a book I did read it so, | |
Lovers do to this village go, | |
We’ll be gone in the dead of night, | |
Wednesday we will be man and wife | |
Come away Bonny come my love, Bonny away (x 2) | |
We wont rest on our journey north, | |
In the footsteps of those before, | |
There our travel will be complete, | |
Where old England and Scotland meet | |
Come with me up to old Dumfries, | |
For to meet there the Anvil Priest, | |
Now the two of us are sixteen, | |
We’ll be wedded in Gretna Green | |
Come away Bonny come my love, Bonny away (x 2) | |
Instrumental | |
Come away Bonny come my love, Bonny away (x 4) |
Come with me up to old Dumfries, | |
For to meet there the Anvil Priest, | |
Now the two of us are sixteen, | |
We' ll be headed for Gretna Green | |
In a book I did read it so, | |
Lovers do to this village go, | |
We' ll be gone in the dead of night, | |
Wednesday we will be man and wife | |
Come away Bonny come my love, Bonny away x 2 | |
We wont rest on our journey north, | |
In the footsteps of those before, | |
There our travel will be complete, | |
Where old England and Scotland meet | |
Come with me up to old Dumfries, | |
For to meet there the Anvil Priest, | |
Now the two of us are sixteen, | |
We' ll be wedded in Gretna Green | |
Come away Bonny come my love, Bonny away x 2 | |
