The Merry Muses of Caledonia by Robert Burns Whistle o'er the Lave o't

The Ranting Dog the Daddy o't→

WHISTLE O'ER THE LAVE O'T.

A fragment of the old song on which Burns modelled his amended version.

My mither sent me to the well, She had better gane hersel, I got the thing I daur nae tell,  Whistle o'er the lave o't. My mither sent me to the sea, For to gather mussles three; A sailor lad fell in wi' me,  Whistle o'er the lave o't.
