Biography:
Malinky is a Scottish folk band specialising in Scots song.
Formed in autumn 1998, the original members were Karine Polwart from Banknock, Stirlingshire (vocals, guitar, bouzouki), Steve Byrne from Arbroath (vocals, guitar, bouzouki, mandolin), Mark Dunlop from Garryduff, Co. Antrim (bodhrán, whistles, vocals) and English fiddler Kit Patterson.
First meeting to rehearse in early October that year, the band was largely formed to help Polwart fulfil a support slot at Edinburgh Folk Club some ten days later

A light dragoon came over the hill
C
When the moon was shining clearly
F C
There was a little lady and she knew him by his horse
F G C F
Because she loved him dearly, dearly, so dearly
Dm7 C
There was a little lady and she knew him by his horse
F G C
Because she loved him dearly
[Verse]

She's taken him by the nearside rein
C
Led him to the stable
F C
"Here's corn and hay for your horse, young man
F G C F
He can eat while he is able, able, so able
Dm7 C
Here's corn and hay for your horse, young man
F G C
He can eat while he is able"

It's cakes and wine for you, my dear
F G C
You can drink while you are able"

She's gone upstairs to make his bed
C
Make it soft and comfy
F C
So nimble she's jumped into the bed
F G C F
To see if it was easy, easy, so easy
Dm7 C
So nimble she's jumped into the bed
F G C
To see if it was easy
[Verse]

The light dragoon has come upstairs

And put his trousers on the table

To do what he was able, able, so able

So nimble he's jumped into the bed
F G C
To do what he was able
[Verse]
C
They've played upstairs 'til the clock struck one
C
And the trumpets, they were sounding
F C
Her spirits, they were high and her belly, it was low
F G C F
An' she run home to her mummy, mummy, her mummy
Dm7 C
Her spirits, they were high and her belly, it was low
F G C
An' she run home to her mummy
[Verse]
C
"Oh, where have you been all the livelong night?"
C
Enquired her anxious parents
F C
"I have been alone with the light dragoon
F G C F
Because I love him dearly, dearly, so dearly
Dm7 C
I've been alone with the light dragoon
F G C
Because I love him dearly"
