In Glasgow and Dunedin
                     G
Were maidens fair to see
    C
But never a lowland maiden
                G         C
Could lure mine eyes from thee

And when with blossoms laden
                  G
The summer comes again
     C
I'll fetch my bonny maiden
             G        C
Back tae her mountain glen
 
[Chorus]
C
Horo, my nut brown maiden
                   G
Hiri, my nut brown maid
  C
Horo, ro maiden
              G        C
For she's the maid for me
