| | | GO to Berwick, Johnnie; | |
| Bring her frae the Border; | |
| Yon sweet bonny lassie, | |
| Let her gae nae farther. | |
| English loons will twine ye | 5 |
| O’ the lovely treasure; | |
| But we ’ll let them ken | |
| A sword wi’ them we ’ll measure. | |
| |
| Go to Berwick, Johnnie, | |
| And regain your honor; | 10 |
| Drive them o’er the Tweed, | |
| And show our Scottish banner. | |
| I am Rob, the King, | |
| And ye are Jock, my brither; | |
| But, before we lose her, | 15 |
| We ’ll a’ there thegither. | | | | |
