 “Some ca’ me this, some ca’ me that,

What name does best befa’ me;

But when I walk in Edinburgh streets,

The Curling Buckle they ca’ me.”

“O waes me now, O Curling Buckle,

And, alas! that ever I saw thee;

For I’m in love, sick, sick in love,

And I kenna weel fat they ca’ thee.”

“Some ca’ me this, some ca’ me that,

Whatever name best befa’s me;

But when I’m in Scotland’s King’s high court,

Clatter the Speens they ca’ me.”

“O waes me now, O Clatter the Speens,

And alas! that ever I saw thee;

For I’m in love, sick, sick in love,

I kenna weel fat they ca’ thee.”

“Some ca’ me this, some ca’ me that,

I carena what they ca’ me;

But when wi’ the Earl o’ Moray I ride,

It’s Scour the Braes they ca’ me.”

“O waes me now, O Scour the Braes,

And alas! that ever I saw thee;

For I’m in love, sick, sick in love,

And kenna weel fat they ca’ thee.”

“Some ca’ me this, some ca’ me that,

Whatever name best befa’s me;

But when I walk through St. Johnson’s town,

George Burnett there they ca’ me.”
