The ugliest witch in the north

 tae me

I'd raither toddle aroond the tree"

Weel wrocht wi pearls abune the band

An' she's ta'en oot her grass-green 
horn
    Dm                           
She blew it three times loud and

She'd gar me rue the day I ever was
 Am

                  G
It fell upon last Halloween
         Dm                      Am
When the seely coort came riding by
                              G
The queen's lichtit doon on a gowany
 bank
    Dm                           Am
Nae far fae the tree whaur I did lie


[Verse 8]

She straked it three times o'er her
 Am

                            G
She's turned me back tae ma proper
