Child Ballads - Lyrics

1

Saddled briddled
booted rade he;
Toom cam saddle,
never he.

2

Down his mither,
greetin fu ,
And cam his bonny wife,
wringin hair.

3

Saddled briddled
booted rade he;
Toom cam saddle,
never he.

1	Saddled and briddled and booted rade he; Toom hame cam the saddle, but never cam he.
2	Down cam his auld mither, greetin fu sair, And down cam his bonny wife, wringin her hair.
3	Saddled and briddled and booted rade he; Toom hame cam the saddle, but never cam he.
