    Lyrics
    As I was walking all alane
    I heard twa corbies makin' a'mane
    The tane unto the tither did say oh
    Whare shall we gang and dine the day oh
    Whar shall we gang and dine the day

    It's in behind yon auld fell dyke
    I wot there lies a new slain knight
    And naebody kens that he lies there
    But his hawk and his hound and his lady fair oh
    But his hawk and his hound and his lady fair

    His hound is to the hunting gane
    His hawk to fetch the wild fowl hame
    His lady ta-en anither mate
    So we may mak' our dinner swate oh
    So we may mak' our dinner swate

    Ye'll sit on his white hause-bane
    And I'll pike out his bonny blue e'en
    Wi' a lock o' his gowden hair
    We'll theek our nest when it grows bare oh
    We'll theek oor nest when it grows bare

    There's mony a one for him maks mane
    But nane shall ken where he has gane
    O'er his white banes when they are bare
    The wind shall blaw for evermair oh
    The wind shall blaw for ever mair
