Testo The Rovin Ploughboy Malinky
Come saddle tae me, my auld gray mare
Come saddle tae me, my pony
I'm on the road and I'm goin' far awa
Awa wi' the rovin ploughboy
Chorus (after each verse):
Ploughboy-oh ploughboy-oh
I'll follow the rovin ploughboy-oh
Last night I lay in a fine feather bed
Sheets and blankets sae cosy
The night I maun lie in a cauld barn shed
Rowed in the arms o' my ploughboy
Champion ploughboy, my Geordie lad
Cups and medals and prizes
In bonnie Deveronside there's nane can compare
Wi my jolly rovin ploughboy
Fare ye weel tae auld Huntly toon
And fareweel tae Drumdelgie
I'm on the road and I'm goin' far awa
Awa' wi' the rovin ploughboy
