1. CWhen I die Fbury me Clow
where I can Emihear the Dmibonny Tweed Gflow
a Amisweeter place I Fnever did Cknow
the rolling Amihills of the GBorCder.
2. I've travelled far wandered wide
I've seen the Hudson and the Clyde
I parted by Loch Lomond side
but I dearly love the Border.
3. Well do I remind the day
with my lassies strode by the way
but all these beauties fade away
among the hills of the Border.
4. There's a certain place of mine
bonnie lassies there you'll find
men so sturdy yet so kind
among the hills of the Border.
