5^6 THE EDINBURGH SYREN J
We* re gaily yet.
We're gayly yet, and we're gayiy yet,
And we're no very fou, but we're gayly yet,
Then fit ye a v/hile and tipple a bit.
For we're no very fou, but we're gayly yet.
There was a lad, and they ca'd him Dicky,
He gae me a kifs, and I bit his lippy ;
Then under my apron he lliow'd me a trick ;
And we're no very lou, but we're gayly yet.
And we're gayly yet, &c.
There were three lads, and they v/ere clad.
There were three lafles, and they them had.
Three trees in the orchard are newly fprung,
And we's a' get gear enough, we're but young.
Then up wi't Aillie, Aillie,
Up wi't, Aillie, now.
Then up wi't, Aillie, quo' cummer,
We's a' get roaring fou.
And one was kifs'd in the barn,
Another was kifs'd on the green?
The third behind the peafe ftack,
Till the mow flew up to her een.
Then up wi't, &c.
Now fy, John Thomfon, rin,
Gin ever ye ran in your life ;
We* re gaily yet.
We're gayly yet, and we're gayiy yet,
And we're no very fou, but we're gayly yet,
Then fit ye a v/hile and tipple a bit.
For we're no very fou, but we're gayly yet.
