"I cannot explain further, sir."

They just happened in

a wee while ago.

"Well, welcome to Brigadoon.

How did you gentlemen get here?"

"We came from Graymore,

six miles yonder."

Six miles.

That's quite a distance.

"You must be hungry. Angus, how about

some breakfast for our visitors?"

"Charlie, their money..."

I do not want their money.

"This is my weddin' day, laddie.

You're my invited guests."

"Help yourselves.

Bread, scones, ginger cakes."

"Oh, but first,

a bit o' heather ale."

Sandy!

- Here I am.

- Some ale for our guests.

Ale for everybody!

So you're getting married today.

That's wonderful.

"Aye, it is."

"This afternoon,

to Miss Jean Campbell."

- Campbell?

- Aye.

I think I met your bride

a few minutes ago. She's very charming.

"Aye, that she is."

Her health.

Her health!

- To our visitors!

- Here!

And to Mr. Forsythe.

I hope he knows

how grateful I am to him...

to postponin' the miracle for me.

"- That what?

- 'Tis a toast we have here, sir."

And may God bless me this evenin'

as much as I would bless him...

if I were he

and he were Charles Dalrymple.

I guess we'll not be seein' you

at the tavern anymore.

"Aye, lads.

My tavern days are over."

I used to be a rovin' lad

A rovin' and wanderin' life

I had

On any lass I'd frown

Who would try to tie me down

But then one day

I saw a maid

Who held out her hand

and I stayed and stayed

And now across the green

I'll go home with bonnie Jean

"Go home, go home"

Go home with bonnie Jean

"Go home, go home"

I'll go home with bonnie Jean

In Aberdeen I used to know

A lass with an air

an' her name was Jo

And every night at 10:00

I would meet her

in the glen

But now you'll not

see her again

Especially not

in the glen at 10:00

For now across the green

You'll...

Go home with bonnie Jean

"Go home, go home"

Go home with bonnie Jean

"Go home, go home"

I'll go home with bonnie Jean

Hello to married men I've known

I'll soon have a wife

and leave yours alone

A bonnie wife indeed

And she's all I'll ever need

You wanted her at any cost

But how do you know

if you've won or lost

And still across the green

You'll go home with bonnie Jean

"Go home, go home"

Go home with bonnie Jean

"Go home, go home"

You'll

Go home with bonnie Jean

"- Oh, you can't stop now!

- Go on!"

"Go home, go home"

Go home with bonnie Jean

"Go home, go home"

I'll go home with bonnie Jean

"Go home, go home"

Go home with bonnie Jean

"Go home, go home"

I'll go home with bonnie Jean

"Go home, go home"

Go home with bonnie Jean

"Go home, go home"

I'll go home

With bonnie

"- Jean

- Go home, go home"

"Go home, go home

go home, go home"

"Go home with bonnie Jean, aye"
