Come awa' my lad an' tak' a wee drappie mair, mair, I drank her health the second time she did the same to me, A strapping lookin' hassie she seemed for to be; She forced the drink upon me till I saw the house run round, And in another twa or three minutes I was ower sleepin' sound; gone, Songs sent to any part of the country on receipt of an extrea stamp to ensure a free return per post, Immediate despatch may be relied upon.
