I Love a Lassie Songtext
von Sir Harry Lauder

I love a lassie, a bonnie Hielan′ lassie
If you saw her you would fancy her as well
I met her in September, popped the question in November
So I'll soon be havin′ her a' to ma-sel'
Her faither has consented, so I′m feelin′ quite contented
'Cause I′ve been and sealed the bargain wi' a kiss
I sit and weary weary, when I think aboot ma deary
An′ you'll always hear me singing this

I love a lassie, a bonnie bonnie lassie
She′s as pure as a lily in the dell
She's sweet as the heather, the bonnie bloomin' heather
Mary, my Scots bluebell


I love a lassie, a bonnie Hielan′ lassie
She can warble like like a blackbird in the dell
She′s an angel ev'ry Sunday, but a jolly lass on Monday
She′s as modest as her namesake the bluebell
She's nice, she′s neat, she's tidy and I meet her ev′ry Friday
That's a special nicht, you bet, I never miss
I'm enchanted, I′m enraptured, since ma heart the darlin′captur'd
She′s intoxicated me with bliss

I love a lassie, a bonnie bonnie lassie
She's as pure as a lily in the dell
She′s sweet as the heather, the bonnie bloomin' heather
Mary, my Scots bluebell

I love a lassie, a bonnie Hielan′ lassie
I could sit an' let her tease me for a week
For the way she keeps behavin' well, I never pay for shavin′
′Cause she rubs ma whiskers clean off with her cheek
And underneath ma bonnet, where the hair was, there's none on it
For the way she pats ma head has made me bald
I know she means no harm, for she′ll keep me nice and warm
On the frosty nichts sae very cauld

I love a lassie, a bonnie bonnie lassie
She's as pure as a lily in the dell
She′s sweet as the heather, the bonnie bloomin' heather
Mary, my Scots bluebell
