 O wally wally up yon wood,

and down by bonny yarrow,

The lassie lost her

wi Will her winsome marrow.

Stately stapt he east the wa,

the lad I darena name man;

Geordy reigns in Charlies hay

send Lewie Gordon hame man;

In winter when the rain rain'd cauld;

Willie brew'd a peck o man;

John Anderson yer'e growing auld,

pit a sheeps head i' the pat man.

The tailor cam to clout the claise,

upon a lammas night man,

Which caus'd the battle o'the flaes,

and shaw'd M'Craw great might man;

John Tamson at the key-hole keeks,

my Wifes a wanton pauky,

Shes clouting Johnnys grey brecks,

and Bess shes but a gauky.

In Fife there liv'd a wicked wife,

And she has taen the gee man,

The barring caus'd the strife,

and Sandy o'er the lee man;
