Annie Laurie

Maxwelton braes  are bonnie,

Where early falls the dews

And it's there that Annie Laurie

Gave me her promise true




Gave me her promise true

Which never forget will be

And for bonnie Annie Laurie

I'd lay me down and die




Her brow is like the snowdrift

Her throat is like the swan

Her face, it is the fairest

That ever the sun shone on




That ever the sun shone on

and dark, blue is her eyes

And for bonnie Annie Laurie

I'd  lay me down and die.





Like dew on the gowan lying,

Is the fall of her fairy feet

And like the winds in the summer sighing

Her voice is low and sweet




Her voice is low and sweet

And she's all the world to me


And for bonnie Annie Laurie

I'd  lay me down and die
