THE BLUEBELL OF SCOTLAND by ANONYMOUS

First Line: OH WHERE! AND OH WHERE! IS YOUR HIGHLAND LADDIE GONE
Last Line: AND IT'S OH! IN MY HEART THAT I LOVE MY LADDIE WELL

OH where! and oh where! is your Highland laddie gone?
He's gone to fight the French for King George upon the throne;
And it's oh! in my heart how I wish him safe at home.

Oh where! and oh where! does your Highland laddie dwell?
He dwells in merry Scotland at the sign of the Bluebell;
And it's oh! in my heart that I love my laddie well.
