Lowland Scots text

O wilt thou go wi’ me, sweet Tibbie Dunbar?
O wilt thou go wi’ me, sweet Tibbie Dunbar?
Wilt thou ride on a horse, or be drawn in a car,
Or walk by my side, Sweet Tibbie Dunbar?

I care na thy daddie, his lands and his money,
I care na thy kindred, sae high and sae lordly;
But sae that thou’lt hae me for better for waur,
And come in thy coatie, Sweet Tibbie Dunbar.
