[Verse 1]
My parents married me o'er young
To an old carle both bald and dumb
His love was done and mine new sprung
So I'll fly the plains wi' my laddie-o
[Chorus]
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Hey, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Mount an' I'll gang wi' ye-o
[Verse 2]
For I would relieve my good peat stack
And sae wid I my guid kailyard
Sae wid I my auld bald laird
To fly the plains wi' my laddie-o
[Chorus]
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Hey, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Mount an' I'll gang wi' ye-o
[Verse 3]
And when the old carle fast asleep
With his arms shе quickly did creep
And the keys of the cabin shе did keep
When she's flown the plains wi' her laddie-o
[Chorus]
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Hey, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Mount an' I'll gang wi' ye-o
[Verse 4]
The auld carle wakened in the ha'
The sheet was cauld an' she was awa'
With the wecht to hersel' in gold an' a'
She's flown the plains wi' her laddie-o
[Chorus]
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Hey, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Mount an' I'll gang wi' ye-o
[Verse 5]
An' ye'll gang doon tae yon seashore
Ye'll see a ship faur she was afore
Ye'll speer at the skipper if she's been there
Or if any of her sailors saw her-o
[Chorus]
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Hey, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Mount an' I'll gang wi' ye-o
[Verse 6]
And as she sailed out o'er yon lea
She drank a toast right merrily
She'd thrown the wine glass into the sea
For joy she has found wi' her laddie-o
[Chorus]
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Hey, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Mount an' I'll gang wi' ye-o
[Verse 7]
And when she landed o'er yon lea
She was lady o' fifty ploughs an' three
Lady o' fifty ploughs an' three
An' she dearly loves her laddie-o
[Chorus]
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Hey, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Mount an' I'll gang wi' ye-o
[Chorus]
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Hey, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Come, bonnie laddie, mount and go
Mount an' I'll gang wi' ye-o
