Your Lassie will be True
Copyright, 1881, by B. B.W. Hitchcock.

Though seas now divide, and the mountains so wide,
I'll never once forget you far away;
But I treasure still the flower that you gave me one sweet hour.
When we watched the lads and lasses dancing gay;
You ve longed for my coming, and I've wept bitter"tears.
Your Scotch lassie still is your own;
She lever will be false, for her heart she left with you.
No! your lassie, blue-eyed lassie, will be true.

Chorus.
Oh, laddie, my laddie, far away,
Still would your darling die for you.
She never will be false, ah, no! no matter what they say,
No! your lassie, blue-eyed lassie, will be true.

Then love, don't forget that I think of you yet,
Mid Scotland's bonnie hills across the sea;
And though far away I roam, ah! I know there is a home
That is waiting there, my own, for you and me:
I'll come to you. laddie, like the bird to its nest,
For still I am praying for you;
Of all this world so fair I am loving you the best.
And your lassie, blue-eyed lassie, will be true.-Chorus.
