[Chorus]
Gin I war whaur the Gadie rins
Whaur the Gadie rins, whaur the Gadie rins
Gin I war whaur the Gadie rins
At the back o Bennachie
[Verse 1]
Oh, I never had but twa richt lads
Aye, twa richt lads, twa richt lads
I never had but twa richt lads
That dearly coorted me
[Chorus]
Gin I war whaur the Gadie rins
Whaur the Gadie rins, whaur the Gadie rins
Gin I war whaur the Gadie rins
At the back o Bennachie
[Verse 2]
And ane wis killed at the Lowrin Fair
The Lowrin Fair, at the Lowrin Fair
Oh, ane wis killed at the Lowrin Fair
The ither wis droont in the Dee
[Chorus]
Gin I war whaur the Gadie rins
Whaur the Gadie rins, whaur the Gadie rins
Gin I war whaur the Gadie rins
At the back o Bennachie
[Verse 3]
And I gave to him the haunin fine
The haunin fine, the haunin fine
Gave to him the haunin fine

Gin I war whaur the Gadie rins
Whaur the Gadie rins, whaur the Gadie rins
Gin I war whaur the Gadie rins
At the back o Bennachie
[Verse 4]
Well, he gave to me the linen fine
The linen fine, the linen fine
Gave to me the linen fine

[Chorus]
Gin I war whaur the Gadie rins
Whaur the Gadie rins, whaur the Gadie rins
Gin I war whaur the Gadie rins
