[Verse 1]
Last year at Lady Mary's Fair
Whan I wis on the spree
I fell in wi an old sweethert
A weaver fae Dundee
Her company I sought and won
And with her I did go
But I'll hing my head in shame to say
I proved her overthrow
[Verse 2]
We wandered east, we wandered west
We wandered roon' the law
I said I'd see her hame that night
But hame we never saw
I kept beside her aw my while
Resolved tae hae my will
And by and by, we lost our wey
At the back o Reres Hill
[Verse 3]
Nou fan we cam tae Reres Hill
A thocht did come tae me
"We can't go home tonight, my dear
It's far ower late, ye'll see
But the night is warm and in my pooch
I hae another gill
So we can lie down here content
At the back o Reres Hill."
