The Dubliners - Tibbie Dunbar lyrics

Tibby Dunbar Oh, wilt thou go wi me sweet Tibby Dunbar
Oh, wilt thou go wi me sweet Tibby Dunbar
Wilt thou ride on a horse or be drawn in a cart
Or walk by my side sweet Tibby Dunbar? A care nae thy daddie, his land or his mony
A care nae thy kin, sae high and sae lordly
But say that thou'lt hae me for better or waur
And com in your coatie sweet Tibby Dunbar A offer you ma'y thing in sillar or land
What men could determine the price of your handThe Dubliners - Tibbie Dunbar - http://motolyrics.com/the-dubliners/tibbie-dunbar-lyrics.html
What gin you consent we'd be richer by far
Oh, wilt thou go wi' me sweet Tibby Dunbar? Oh, wilt thou be known as a poor beggar's lady
And sleep in the heather rolled up in my plaidie
The sky for a roof and your candle a star
My love for a fire sweet Tibby Dunbar Oh, wilt thou go wi' me sweet Tibby Dunbar
Oh, wilt thou go wi' me sweet Tibby Dunbar
Wilt thou ride on a horse or be drawn in a cart
Or walk by my side sweet Tibby Dunbar? Submitter's comments:  The original (and beautiful) is written by Robert Burns, but the text as sung by the Dubliners seem to be a different version, of two strophes longer, than the Burns's or the official Burns version. Enjoy!
