[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
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
