O he’s gane on the braid, braid road,

And she’s gane through the broom sae bonnie,

Her silken robes down to her heels,

And she’s awa wi Richie Storie.

This lady gade up the Parliament stair,

Wi pendles in her lugs sae bonnie;

Mony a lord lifted his hat,

But little did they ken she was Richie’s lady.
