"I'll buy you a nine stringed bell
Tae call yer maid when'er you will
If ye'll gang alang wi' me m'dear, if ye'll gang alang wi' me?"

Tae call my maid when'er I will
For I'll never gang wi' you m'dear, I'll never gang wi' you."

Tae comfort you when you are old
If ye'll gang alang wi' me m'dear, if ye'll gang alang wi' me?"

They'd scarcely gone a mile
Before she spied his cloven heel
"I rue I come wi' you" she says, "I rue I come wi' you."

"I'll grip ye hard and fast, 
Gold won your virgin heart at last
And I'll no part wi' you m'dear, I'll never part wi' you."

And as they were galloping along
The cold wind carried her mournful song

"I rue I come wi' you" she says, "I rue I come wi' you."
"I rue I come wi' you" she says, "I rue I come wi' you."

(Dm   Am   F   Am) x2
