As I Gaed Ower yon High, High Hill- sung by Alexander Greig of Oldwhat, New Deer, Aberdeenshire. Collected by Grieg about 1907, version H.
1. As I gaed ower yon high high hill,
I met a bonny lassie,
She looked to me and I to she,
And oh, but she was saucy.
CHORUS: Tum a roo dum dow dum, Fal de reedle ae,
Tum a roo dum dow dum da die.
