"Annie Laurie" is an old Scottish song based on a poem said to have been written by William Douglas (1672 - c1760 [1]) of Dumfriesshire, about his romance with Annie Laurie (1682–1764). The words were modified and the tune was added by Alicia Scott in 1834/5. The song is also known as "Maxwelton Braes".
