The roving maids of Aberdeen, they are o brik and airy, They make the young men laugh at them, their heads o high they carry. Fal-de-ral-lal-de-ral.

Now to behold thee pretty maids, as they walk on the cauey, With ruffle cuffs and capuchines, and w w but they be aucy.

With fine net-hoods upon their heads, each dame a buckling-comb O, Which mounted is with ilver bright, and et with Brito’-tone'O.

With new-fashion caps of different shapes, that are o montrous high O! Suoh florey piggs, upon their heads, are frightful to the eye O!
