Tune—"Ruffian's Rant."
An old song.
O, yon, yon, yon, lassie,
Yon, yon, yon,
I never met a bonny lass,
But I wad play at yon.
O yon, yon, &c.
I never saw a silken gown,
But I wad kiss the sleeve o't;
I never saw a maidenhead,
That I wad spier the leave o't.
O yon, yon, &c.
Tell na me o' Meg my wife,
Her crowdie has na savour,
But gie to me a bonny lass,
And let me steal the favour.
O yon, yon, &c.
Gie me her I kissed yestreen,
I vow but she was handsome,
For ilka hair upon her c—t,
Was worth a royal ransom.
O yon, yon, &c.
