Charly He's My Darlin' - Die Streuner

Charlie he’s my darlin',

My darlin', my darlin'.

Charlie, he’s my darlin'

The Young Chevalier!

'Twas on a Monday morning

Right early in the year,

That Charlie came to our town

The Young Chevalier!

Charlie he’s my darlin',

My darlin', my darlin'.

Charlie, he’s my darlin'

The Young Chevalier!

As he was walking down the street

The city for to view,

O, there he spied a bonie lass

The windle peekin' thro'!

Charlie he’s my darlin',

My darlin', my darlin'.

Charlie, he’s my darlin'

The Young Chevalier!

Sae light’s the jumped up the stair,

and tirl’d at the pin:

And wha sae ready as hersel'

To let the laddie in!

Charlie he’s my darlin',

My darlin', my darlin'.

Charlie, he’s my darlin'

The Young Chevalier!

He set his Jenny on his knee,

All in his Highland dress;

For brawlie weel he kend the way

To please a bonie lass.

Charlie he’s my darlin',

My darlin', my darlin'.

Charlie, he’s my darlin'

The Young Chevalier!

It’s up yon heathery mountain

And down yon scroggy glen,

We daurna gang a-milking

For Charlie and his men!

Charlie he’s my darlin',

My darlin', my darlin'.

Charlie, he’s my darlin'

The Young Chevalier!
