Maxwellton's braes are bonnie
Where early fa's the dew
And it's there that annie laurie
Gave me her promise true
Gave me her promise true
Which ne'er forgot will be
And for bonnie annie laurie
I'd lay me doon and dee
Her brow, is like the snowdrift
Her neck is like the swan
Her face it is the fairest
That e'er the sun shone on
That e'er the sun shone on
And dark blue is her e'e
And for bonnie annie laurie
I'd lay me down and dee
I'd lay me down and dee
