Lyrics:

Maybe I'll be married
An' maybe nane at a'
Maybe I'll be married
Tae the laird of Turnisha'

Chorus (after each verse):
Oh riggy doo rig, rig a daddy
Oh riggy doo rig, rig a day
Oh riggy doo rig, rig a daddy
Oh riggy doo rig, rig a day

Maybe I'll be married
Maybe I'll win hame
Maybe I'll be married
Tae the lad I daurna name

He's comin' here and he will be here
He's comin' here for a' that
Ma bonny lad that'll marry me
And tak me frae ye a' yet

An' maybe I'll hae hose and shoon
When ye maun a' gang barfit
Maybe I'll gang neat and clean
When ye gang wet and drabblit

There's nane o' ye been guid tae me
But I'll reward ye a' yet
Ye'll maybe need a peck o' meal
When I can gie ye twa yet

There's nane o' ye been guid tae me
But I'll reward ye a' yet
Ye'll maybe sit in ma cot neuk
When I sit in ma ha' yet

Maybe I'll be married
Maybe I'll win hame
Maybe I'll be married
Tae the lad I daurna name

(Chorus...)
