Open the Door / Russet-Haired Daughter

Open the door for the fiddling tailor
Open the door for the tailoring fiddler

The King's son-in-law is the tailoring fiddler

Faithful am I to him, kinsman am I to him
Faithful am I to the tailoring fiddler
Faithful am I to him, kinsman am I to him
The King's son-in-law is the tailoring fiddler

Goat's milk for the fiddling tailor

Donald Ruadh the piper's russet-haired daughter
Would attend a ball if she could catch the fiddler's eye
Donald Ruadh the piper's russet-haired daughter
Would be quite peace loving
Provided she was given a dram
She would card wool, she would comb wool,
She would attend a ball
If she could catch the fiddler's eye
She would be quite peace loving
Provided she was given a dram
