8 I hae a upon the shelf, Lass gin ye loe me tell me now, I downa eat it a myself, And I winnae come any mair to woo.

AND WE'RE A NODDIN

And we're a noddin, nid nid noddin, And we're a noddin at our house at hame.

When the dame's awa ’tis the time to woo, For the lads like lasses and lasses lads too, Kate sits in the neuk wi'her laddie sae true, And the carle take ye a’ for yer’e a noddin too, And we’re a’ noddin, &c.

And how dy'e kimmer and how d'ye thrive? How many bairns hae ye? quo kimmer I hae five, And are they a at hame? O na, na, na. For two o' them are gane wi' Willie far awa', And we're a' noddin, &c.
