Spring comes tae Kirrie Aw the world’s in bloom Winter is forgiven now Fooled by April’s broom Kirrie, oh Kirrie You were aye my hame ‘Til Napoleon’s bloody cannon hit their aim Jeanie, oh, Jeanie I am surely done Stricken down in battle At the mooth o Boney’s guns Jeanie, oh, Jeanie Aye sae dear tae me Let me hold you in my mind before I dee Chorus: For the cold returns in autumn When the wind rak?s the trees And the summer li?s forgotten In a cold bed of leaves As winter begins, aye mind Boney It wasn’t only you Who was broken on the field of Waterloo Surgeon, oh, surgeon Leave me wae my pain Save your knife for others Who will surely rise again Surgeon, oh, surgeon Leave ma blood to pour Let it drain into the bitter clay once more Daughter, oh, daughter Listen, dear, tae me Never wed a sodger Or a widow you will be Daughter, oh daughter Curse your lad to die E’er he catches the recruitin’ sergeant’s eye Boney, oh, Boney War was aye your game Bloody field your table Cannon yours to aim Boney, oh, Boney We aye live the same Drillin’ laddies not to fear the muskets’ flame
