99—ANNIE LAURIE
Maxwelton braes are bonnie,
Where early fa's the dew,
And it's there that Annie Laurie,
Gie'd me her promise true,
Gie'd me her promise true
Which ne'er forgot will be
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
I'd lay me doon and dee.
Her brow is like the snaw-drift,
Her neck is like the swan,
Her face it is the fairest,
That e'er the sun shone on,
That e'er the sun shone on,
And dark blue is her e'e
And for bonnie Annie Laurie—
I'd lay me doon and dee.
100—LOCH LOMOND
Oh! ye'll tak' the high road, and I'll tak' the low road,
An' I'll be in Scotland afore ye
But me an' my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond.
101—ROAMIN' IN THE GLOAMIN'
Roamin' in the gloamin'
On the bonnie banks o' Clyde,
Roamin' in the gloamin'
Wae my lassie by my side;
When the sun has gone to rest,
That's the time that we love best,
O, it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'.
