Full Lyrics
R.: Gae bring tae me a pint o wine, and fill it in a siller tassie
that I may drink afore I go, a service tae my bonnie lassie
The boat rocks at the pier o Leith, fu loud the wind blaws fae the ferry
The sip rides by the Berwick Law, and I maun leave my bonnie Mary.
R.
The trumpet sounds, the banners fly, the glitterin spears are ranked ready
The shouts o war are heard afar, the battle closes deep and bloody
It’s no the roar o sea on shore that maks me langer wish tae tarry
Nor shouts o war that’s heard afar, it’s leaving thee, my bonnie Mary.
R.
