O kind sir, she said be civil
For you will waken my dadda,
With your, &c.

He never minded what she said,
But carried on his stroke,
With his, &c.
Till he got his job done,
Then he began to joke,
With his, &c.

Have you got ony dogs about the house,
Or ony cats ava,
With his, &c.
For I'm fear'd they'll cut my meal pocks,
Throw them against the wa',
With a, &c.
O deil tak your meal pocks,
My maidenhead's awa,
With your, &c.

The lassie she got up again,
Three hours before 'twas day,
With a, &c.
For to gie the beggar hansel
Before he went awa,
With his, &c.

She went into the cellar,
To draw a pot of ale;
With a, &c.
And the beggar follow'd after,
And did the joke again,
With his, &c.
