Annie Laurie

Maxwelton's braes are bonnie
Where early fa's the dew
It was there that Annie Laurie
Gave me her promise true
Gave me her promise true
Which ne'er forgot will be
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
I'd lay me doon and dee

Her brow is like the snowdrift
Her neck is like the swan
Her face it is the fairest
That e'er the sun shone on
That e'er the sun shone on
And dark blue is her e'e
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
I'd lay me doon and dee

Her voice is low and sweet
She's a' the world to me
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
I'd lay me doon and dee
