Plooboy Laddies
Doon yonder den there's a plooboy lad
Some simmer's day he'll be aa my ain
And sing laddie aye, and sing laddie o
The plooboy laddies are aa the go
I love his teeth, an I love his skin
I love the verra cairt he hurls in
In yonder toon ah could hae gotten a merchant
But aa his gear wisna worth a groat
Doon yonder den ah could hae gotten a miller
But aa his dust wad hae deen me ill
It's ilka time I gyang tae the stack
I hear his wheep gie the ither crack
I see him comin frae the toon
Wi aa his ribbons hingin roon and roon
