Ca'
The Yowes Tae The Knowes
Ca'
The Yowes Tae The Knowes sung by Andy M Stewart
Alastair McDonald
Ca' the Yowes
As I gaed
down the water-side,
There I met my shepherd lad:
He row'd me sweetly in his plaid,
And he ca'd me his dearie.
Chorus:
Ca' the yowes to the knowes ,
Ca' them where the heather grows,
Ca' them where the burnie rowes ,
My bonie dearie
Will ye
gang down the water-side,
And see the waves sae sweetly glide
Beneath the hazels spreading wide,
The moon it shines fu' clearly.
Chorus:
Ca' the yowes to the knowes ,
Ca' them where the heather grows,
Ca' them where the burnie rowes ,
My bonie dearie
Ye sall
get gowns and ribbons meet,
Cauf-leather shoon upon your feet,
And in my arms ye'se lie and sleep,
An' ye sall be my dearie.
Chorus:
Ca' the yowes to the knowes ,
Ca' them where the heather grows,
Ca' them where the burnie rowes ,
My bonie dearie
If ye'll
but stand to what ye've said,
I'se gang wi' thee, my shepherd lad,
And ye may row me in your plaid,
And I sall be your dearie.
Chorus:
Ca' the yowes to the knowes ,
Ca' them where the heather grows,
Ca' them where the burnie rowes ,
My bonie dearie
While
waters wimple to the sea,
While day blinks in the lift sae hie ,
Till clay-cauld death sall blin' my e'e ,
Ye sall be my dearie.
Chorus:
Ca' the yowes to the knowes ,
Ca' them where the heather grows,
Ca' them where the burnie rowes ,
My bonie dearie.
