Corn Rigs (or Rigs 'O Barley)

It was upon a Lammas night
When the corn rigs were bonnie,
Beneath the moon's unclouded light
I held awa' to Annie

The time flew by wi' tentless heed
'Til 'tween the late and early,
Wi' small persuasion she agreed
To see me thro' the barley

cho: (optional) Corn Rigs and barley rigs
Corn rigs are bonny
I'll ne'eer forget that Lammas night
Amang the rigs wi' Annie

The sky was blue, the wind was still,
The moon was shining clearly
I set her down wi' right good will
Amang the rigs o' barley

I kept her heart, was a' my sin
I loved her most sincerely
I kissed her o'er and o'er again
Amang the rigs o' barley

cho:

I locked her in my fond embrace
Her heart was beatin' rarely
My blessing on that happy place
Amang the rigs o' barley

But by the moon and stars so bright
That shone that hour so clearly,
She aye shall bless that happy night
Amang the rigs of barley

cho:

I hae been blythe wi' comrades dear
I hae been merry drinking
I hae been joyful gath'rin' gear
I hae been happy thinking

But a' the pleasures e'er I saw
Tho' three times doubled fairly,
That happy night was worth them a'
Amang the rigs wi' Annie
