Ewan MacCollJumpin John Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Her daddie forbad, her minnie forbad
Forbidden she wadna be
She wadna trow't the browst she brew'd
Wad taste sae bitterlie
[Chorus]
The lang lad they ca'Jumpin John
Beguil'd the bonie lassie
The lang lad they ca'Jumpin John
Beguil'd the bonie lassie
[Verse 2]
A cow and a cauf, a yowe and a hauf
And thretty gude shillin's and three;
A vera gude tocher, a cotter-man's dochter
The lass wi' the bonie black e'e
[Chorus]
The lang lad they ca'Jumpin John
Beguil'd the bonie lassie
The lang lad they ca'Jumpin John
Beguil'd the bonie lassie
