Dave - you get the music and we can sing it! (I've still got an elderly
vinyl of the Pentangle version. And there is a much longer variant in Lark
Rise to Candleford of all places.)

The verses of "The Bonnie Mill Dams of Binnorie" are in Ord, J "Bothy Songs
and Ballads", John Donald (pub).
My setting of this (for 2 voices and piano) is in my "Songs of an
Antiquary",
available from Esslin Music ([log in to unmask]) or the Scottish Music
Information Centre, Glasgow.
Best wishes,
