  :Yet each true hearted Scotsman by nature jocose, Loves always to dine on a dish o’ guid Brose; And thanks be and praise, we’ve yet plenty of those,
 * O the Kail Brose of Auld Scotland,
 * An’ o’ the Scottish Kail Brose.

CAULD KAIL IN ABERDEEN.

There’s cauld kail in Aberdeen,

And castocks in Stra’bogie,

Where ilka lad maun hae his lass,

I But I maun hae my cogie.

But I maun hae my cogie, troth,

I canna want my cogie

I wadna gie my three-gird cog,

For a’ the wives in Bogie.

Johnny Smith has got a wife,

Wha scrimps him o’ his cogie ;

But were she mine, upon my life,

I’d duck her in a Bogie.

For I maun bae my cogie, troth,

I canna want my cogie,

I wadna gie my three gird cog,

For a’ the wives in Bogie.

Twa or three todlin weans they hae,

The pride o' a' Stra’bogie,
