G               C            G
Lindsay, he has ta'en to the road
C                           D
Straight to the north he'll steer
               G
Wi' a Speyside fiddle in his pack
                                D
Aye, and he’ll make a livin' up here

[Verse]
                    G
He's well met wi' a peddler drouth
                               D
And a chance to adjourn to the inn
     C                       G
He's called for ale and he's ta'en 
up a pipe
And has carelessly slipped to the 
D
tune

piped

        C                         
For the dancers had ta'en tae the 
D
floor
                      G
They neither wanted a pipe nor a 
glass
                              D
Or a lass 'till the music was o'er

[Verse]
                       G
They played up through markets and 
fairs
'Till at last tae the north they've 
D
come
C                    G
There they met black Janet the widow
                            D
Who sang as she rattled her drum

[Verse]
    G                    C         
And Lindsay called black Janet tae 
G
dance
        C                    D
And you ne'er saw so bonny a pair
                  G
She had ta'en him firm by the hand
And they tripped to the top of the 
D
stair

[Verse]
                       G
"Here" she said, "is a fine feather 
bed
                           D
Where a man be he weary or drear
    C                       G
May step for me a gay Strathspey
                              D
With me lilting a tune in his ear"

[Verse]
    G            C           G
And Janet was as good as her word
    C                      D
And Lindsay has proven his worth
                    G
May ya all ha'e sae merry a dance
                        D
If ever you come to the north
