131
Tibby I hae seen the Day*
TUNE— Gin a Body meet a Body.
O Tibbie ! I hae seen the day
Ye wad na been sae shy j
For lack o' gear ye lightly me,
But troth, I care na by.
Yestreen I met you on the moor,
Ye spake na, but gaed by like stoure^
Ye geek at me because I'm poor,
But £ent a hair care I.
Tibbie ! I hae seen the day
Ye \tad na been sae shy 5
For lack o' gear ye lightly me,
But troth, I care na by.
1 doubt na, lass, but ye may think,
Because ye hae the name o' clink,
That ye can please me at a wink?
Whene'er ye like to try.
O Tibbie ! I hae seen the day
Ye wad na been sae shy ;
For lack o' gear ye; lightly mgj
But troth, I care na by.
