Bonny Susie Cleland Lyrics & Tabs by Bella Hardy
Bonny Susie Cleland
guitar chords lyrics
There was a lady in Scotland
Oh my love and oh my life
Who’s fallen in love with an English man
Sing oh my life is early
The father to this daughter’s come
Saying “Will you forsake your English man?
Or Bonnie Susie Cleland
You’ll be buried in Dundee”
“If you’ll not this English Man Forsake”
Oh my love and oh my life
“Then I will burn you at the stake”
Sing oh my life is early
“Where will I find some little foot boy
Who’ll send these tidings to my joy
Tell him, that Bonnie Susie Cleland
“Where will I find some little foot boy
Who’ll send these tidings to my joy
Tell him, that Bonnie Susie Cleland
Will be buried in Dundee”
“And give to him this bright gold ring
Oh my love and oh my life
Won’t you tell him I’ll never forsake him
And that my life seems weary
Give to him this bright gold ring
And tell him I’ve gone to my burning
Tell him, that his Bonnie Susie Cleland
Well I’ll be buried in Dundee”
Her father dragged her to the stake
Oh my love and oh my life
Her father dragged her to the stake
Sing oh my life is early
