Highland Laddie - Burl Ives

Was you ever in Quebec?

Bonny laddie, Highland laddie,

Loading timber on the deck,

My bonny Highland laddie.

High-ho, and away she goes,

Bonny laddie, Highland laddie,

High-ho, and away she goes,

My bonny Highland laddie.

Was you ever in Callao

Where the girls are never slow?

Was you ever in Baltimore

Dancing on the sanded floor?

Was you ever in Mobile Bay,

Screwing cotton by the day?

Was you on the Brummalow,

Where Yankee boys are all the go?

Sei mai stato in Quebec?

Bonny ragazzo, ragazzo delle Highlands,

Caricare legname sul ponte,

Il mio bel ragazzo delle Highland.

High-ho, e lei se ne va,

Bonny ragazzo, ragazzo delle Highlands,

High-ho, e lei se ne va,

Il mio bel ragazzo delle Highland.

Sei mai stato a Callao

Dove le ragazze non sono mai lente?

Sei mai stato a Baltimora

Ballare sul pavimento levigato?

Sei mai stato a Mobile Bay,

Fottere cotone di giorno in giorno?

Eri sul Brummalow,

Dove vanno i ragazzi Yankee?
