sow's tail to Geordie !
It's Geordie he came up the town,
Wi' a bunch o' turnips on his crown ;
" Aha !" quo' she, " I'll pull them down,
"And turn my tail to Geordie."
The sow's tail is till him yet, &c.
It's Geordie he gat up to dance.
And wi' the sow to take a prance,
And aye she gart her hurdies flaunce.
And turn'd her tail to Geordie.
The sow's tail is till him yet, &c.
