SCOTS MEDLEY
AS I cam’ in by Calder fair,
And yont the Lappard Lee, man,
There was braw kissing there,
Come but and kiss wi’ me, man:
There was Highland folk and Lawland folk,
Unco folk and kend folk,
Folk aboon folk i’ the yard;
There’s nae folk like our ain folk,
Dirum dum, &c.
Hech hey, Bessy Bell,
Kilt your coat, Maggy,
Ye’se get a new gown,
Down the burn, Davie.
The Earl of Mar’s bonnie thing,
And muckle bookit wallet;
Play the same tune o’er again,
And down the burn for a’ that.
Dirum dum, &c.
Gin ye had been whare I ha’e been,
Ye wadna been sae wantin’;
I gat the lang girdin o’t,
An’ I fell thro the gantrin.
O’er the hills and far away,
My bonnie winsome Willie,
