(Trad / Alan McFadyen)
Chorus:
Rare, O rare, bonnie Jean Cameron
Rare, O rare, bonnie Jean-O
Ye've a' hae heard tell o' bonnie Jean Cameron
How she fell sick, and was like tae dee
But a' that they could recommend her
Aye was a'e blythe blink o' the Young Pretender
And the doctor was sent for tae see in he could cure her
Quickly he cam, he made no delay
But a' that he could recommend her
Aye was a'e blythe blink o' the Young Pretender
Tae Charlie she wrote a very long letter
Who were his freens, and who were his foes
And a' the words were sweet and tender
Tae win the heart o' the Young Pretender
And scarcely had she sealed the letter
When up flew the door, and in cam her King
She cried to God, bade angels defend her
Then she fell in the arms o' the Young Pretender
Repeat 1
(as sung by Mick West)
