How dan, dilly dow,
Hey dow, dan,
Weel were ye're minnie.
An' ye were a man.
Ye wad hunt an' hawk,
An' hand her o' game,
An' water your daddie's horse
When he cam' hame.
How dan, dilly dow,
Hey dan, floors,
Ye'se lie i' your bed
Till eleven hours.
[Pg 134]If at eleven hours
You list to rise,
Ye'se hae your dinner dight
In a new guise.
Laverocks' legs,
And titlins' taes,
And a' sic dainties
My mannie shall hae.
