Dougie Maclean - Mormond Braes lyrics

As I gaed doon by Strichen toon I heard a fair maid mourning And she was makin' a sair complaint To her true love ne'er returnin' I ti ma do ti ma daddy oh I ti ma do ti ma dae I ti ma do ti ma daddy oh I ti ma do ti ma dae There's as guid fish intae the sea As ever yet was taken So I'll cast my net an' try again For I'm only aince forsakin' There's mona a horse has snappert and fain' An' risen again fu' rarely There's mony a la** has lost her lad An' gotten anither richt early Sae I'll put on my goon o' green It's a forsaken token An' that will let the young lads ken That the bonds o' love are broken Sae I'll gang back tae Strichen toon Whaur I was bred an' born An' there I'll get anither lad Will marry me the morn Sae fare thee weel ye Mormond braes Where oft-times I've been cheery Fare thee weel ye Mormond braes For it's there I've lost my dearie
