Bonnie Wee Jeannie McCall

Bonnie Wee Jeannie McCall - Carl Wilson

A fine wee lass a bonnie wee lass

Is bonnie wee Jeannie McColl;

I gave her my mother's engagement ring

And a bonnie wee tartan shawl

I met her at a waddin'

In the Co-operative Hall

I wis the best man

And she was the belle of the ball

The very first nicht I met her

She was awfy awfy shy

The rain cam' pourin' doon

But she was happy so was I

We ran like mad for shelter

An' we landed up a stair

The rain cam' poorin' oot o' ma breeks

But och I didna care:

For she's Chorus

A fine wee lass a bonnie wee lass

Is bonnie wee Jeannie McColl;

I gave her my mother's engagement ring

And a bonnie wee tartan shawl

I met her at a waddin'

In the Co-operative Hall

I wis the best man

And she was the belle of the ball

Noo I've wad my Jeannie

An' bairnies we have three

Two dochters and a braw wee lad

That sits upon my knee

They're richt wee holy terrors

An' they're never still for lang

But they sit an' listen every nicht

While I sing to them this sang:

A fine wee lass a bonnie wee lass

Is bonnie wee Jeannie McColl;

I gave her my mother's engagement ring

And a bonnie wee tartan shawl

I met her at a waddin'

In the Co-operative Hall

I wis the best man

And she was the belle of the ball

A fine wee lass a bonnie wee lass

Is bonnie wee Jeannie McColl;

I gave her my mother's engagement ring

And a bonnie wee tartan shawl

I met her at a waddin'

In the Co-operative Hall

I wis the best man

And she was the belle of the ball

I wis the best man

And she was the belle of the ball
