Oh Betsy Belle and Mary Gray

They were two bonnie lasses

They biggit a bower on yon Burnside

And theeked it o'er with rashes

Fair Betsy Belle

I loved so well and thought

I ne'er could alter

But Mary Gray's two cheeky eyes caused

All my fancy falter

Oh Betsy Belle and Mary Gray

They were two bonnie lasses

They biggit a bower on yon Burnside

And theeked it o'er with rashes

Betsy's hair's like flaxen gold

She smiles like a May morning

When Phoebus starts from Thoetus lap

The hills with rays adorning

White is her hair soft is her hand

Her waist and feet flow gently

With every grace she can command

Her lips I vow are dainty

Oh Betsy Belle and Mary Gray

They were two bonnie lasses

They biggit a bower on yon Burnside

And theeked it o'er with rashes

Mary's locks are like the crow

Her eyes like diamond's glances

She's aye so clean red up and raw

She kills whene'er she dances

Blithe as a kid with wit and will

She's blooming tight and tall is

And guides her airs so graceful still

Oh Jove she's like thy palace

Oh Betsy Belle and Mary Gray

They were two bonnie lasses

They biggit a bower on yon Burnside

And theeked it o'er with rashes

Young Betsy Belle and Mary Gray

Ye unco saer oppress us

Our fancies fee between ye two

Ye are such bonnie lassies

Woe's me for both I cannot get

To one by law we're stinted

Then I'll draw straws and take my fate

And be with one contented

Oh Betsy Belle and Mary Gray

They were two bonnie lassies

They biggit a bower on yon Burnside

And theeked it o'er with rashes

But Betsy Belle nor Mary Gray could quell

My fancy ever

The plague came from the burrows town

It slew them both together
