[Verse]
It fell on a day, on a bonnie summer day
When the corn was ripe and cheerly
That there fell oot a great dispute
Between Argyll and Airlie
[Verse]
Argyll he has mustered a thousand o his men
He s marched them oot bright early
He s marched them in by the back o Dunkeld
To plunder the bonnie hoose o Airlie
[Verse]
Lady Ogilvie has looked frae her window sae high
And oh, but she grat sairly
Ta see Argyll and a his men
Come be plunder the bonny hoose o Airlie
[Instrumental]
[Verse]
“Come doon, come doon, Lady Ogilvie,” he cried
“Come doon and kiss me fairly
Or I swear by the hilt o my gewwd braidsword
That I winna leave a standin stane in Airlie”
[Verse]
“I winna come doon, ye false Argyll
Nor will I kiss ye fairly
I wadna kiss ye, fause Argyll
Though ye wadna leave a standin stane in Airlie”
[Verse]
“Come tell me whaur your dowry is hid
Come doon and tell me fairly”
“l winna tell ye whaur my dowry is hid
Though ye wadna leave a standin stane in Airlie”
[Instrumental]
[Verse]
They socht it up and they socht it doon
I wat, they socht it early
And it was below yon bowling green
They found the dowry o Airlie
[Verse]
