As I Came In By Huntly Town

As I came in by Huntly Town
 One morning for to feed
 I met with Bogey of Lenny
 And with him I did agree
 To bide his two best horses
 The harrow and the plough
 And do anything about the farm
 That I very well should know
 ♪
 Now Bogey had a daughter dear
 Her name was Isabel
 And she was the fairest in the vale
 And I'm sure I loved her well
 And when she went a-walking
 She took me as her guide
 Down by the banks of the Lenny
 To watch the small fishes glide
 
 And I put my arm all around her waist
 And her feet from her did slide
 It's there she took her will of me
 At Lenny waterside
 And she swore she'd never tell of me
 And the wild birds wouldn't tell
 Of my lily of the valley
 My red rose in the dell
 
 And now when nine months were gone and past
 This lassy lost her bloom
 The red fell from her rosy cheeks
 And her eyes began to swoon
 ♪
 It was just before the harvest time
 When Bogey sent for me
 And he said, his face as black as night
 It's you I wish to see
 And if what my daughter says is true
 We no longer shall agree
 And it's down the road you'll go right now
 And not a penny of your fee.
 Well said I, my man you're fairly right
 And I hung my head in shame
 But I'll marry her tomorrow morn
 And I'll give to her my name.
 So I took my young son in my arms
 And joy to him I'll bring
 And maybe he'll mean as much to me
 As the girl that I adore
