Oh, how often I’ve dressed my queen and put gold upon her hair
But now I’ve gotten for my reward the gallows to be my share
Last night I dressed queen Mary and put on her braw silk gown
And all the thanks I’ve got this night is to be hanged in Edinboro town
They’ll tie a kerchief round my eyes, they’ll no let me see to dee
And they’ll never tell my father and mother but that I’m away o’er the sea
I charge ye all ye sailors, when ye sail o’er the foam
Let neither my father nor mother know but that I’m coming home
Oh, little did my mother think, the day she cradled me
The lands I was to travel in or the death I was to dee
Last night there were four Marys, this night there’ll be but three
There were Mary Beaton and Mary Seaton and Mary Carmichael and me
