At ilka country dance or reel, Quo' he, 'my lass to speak my mind,
Wi' her he -wad he bahhin' ; In troth 1 need na swither,
When she sat down, he sat down, Ye've honny een, and if yi'rt kind,
And to her wad he g-ahbin'; I nccdna seek anitlier?"
Where e'er she gade, baith butt and ben, He hum'd and haw\l,the lass cried feugh!
The cuif woti'd never leave her, And baile the cuif no deave her;
Ay keckling- like a clockin' hen, Sync sna|>t her fingers, lap and leugii .
But Jenny dang- the weaver. And dang' the silly weaver.
Jenny dang-, &c. And Jenny dang-, &c.
