The Devil's Courtship / An Dro

"I'll buy you a pennyworth o' priens
 If that be the way true love begins
 If ye'll gang alang wi' me m'dear, if ye'll gang alang wi' me?"
 "Ye can hae your pennyworth of priens
 Though that be the way true love begins
 For I'll never gang wi' you m'dear, I'll never gang wi' you."
 "I'll buy you a braw snuff box
 Nine times opened, nine times locked
 If ye'll gang alang wi' me m'dear, if ye'll gang alang wi' me?"
 "You can hae your braw snuff box
 Nine times opened, nine times locked
 For I'll never gang wi' you m'dear, I'll never gang wi' you."
 "I'll buy you a silken goon
 Wi' nine stripes up and nine stripes doon
 If ye'll gang alang wi' me m'dear, if ye'll gang alang wi' me?"
 "You can hae your silken goon
 Wi' nine stripes up and nine stripes doon
 For I'll never gang wi' you m'dear, I'll never gang wi' you."

 "I'll buy you a nine stringed bell
 Tae call yer maid when'er you will
 If ye'll gang alang wi' me m'dear, if ye'll gang alang wi' me?"
 "You can keep your nine stringed bell
 Tae call my maid when'er I will
 For I'll never gang wi' you m'dear, I'll never gang wi' you."
 "I'll gie you a kist o' gold
 Tae comfort you when you are old
 If ye'll gang alang wi' me m'dear, if ye'll gang alang wi' me?"
 "These are fine words you say
 So mount up lad you've won the day
 I'll gang alang wi' you m'dear, I'll gang alang wi' you."

 They'd scarcely gone a mile
 Before she spied his cloven heel
 "I rue I come wi' you" she says, "I rue I come wi' you."
 "I'll grip ye hard and fast,
 Gold won your virgin heart at last
 And I'll no part wi' you m'dear, I'll never part wi' you."
 And as they were galloping along
 The cold wind carried her mournful song
 "I rue I come wi' you" she says, "I rue I come wi' you."
 "I rue I come wi' you" she says, "I rue I come wi' you."
