Gin I Were A Baron's Heir Songtext

Gin I were a baron's heir And I could braid wi' gems your hair And make ye braw as ye are fair Lassie, would ye lo'e me? And I would take ye tae the toon And show ye braw sicchts mony an ane And busk ye wi' a silken goon Lassie would ye lo'e me? Or should ye be content to prove In lowly life unfading love A heart that nought on earth could move Lassie, would ye lo'e me? And ere the lavrock wings the sky Say would ye tae the forest high And work wi' me sae merrily Lassie, would ye lo'e me? And when the braw moon glistens o'er Oor wee bit field and heathery muir Will ye nay greet that we're sae puir Lassie, for I lo'e ye? For I hae naught tae offer ye Nae gowd frae mine, nae pearl frae sea Nor am I come o' high degree Lassie, but I lo'e ye!
