As l cam' in b[00:00:18]
Y Monymustk[00:00:19]
And doon by[00:00:20]
Alford's dale[00:00:21]
A sad misfortune happened to me[00:00:22]
And l think nae shame to tell cho[00:00:27]
Fal to too a riddle doo[00:00:30]
Fal to toodle[00:00:32]
I doe As l gaed in by[00:00:32]
Monymustk[00:00:33]
The moon was shining clear[00:00:34]
And I held on to[00:00:37]
Lethendy To see my[00:00:39]
Maggie dear[00:00:40]
I did gang when[00:00:42]
I did think[00:00:44]
That a' were sleepin' soun'[00:00:45]
But plague upon yon auld wife[00:00:47]
For she cam' slinkin' doon[00:00:49]
Sae cannily she slipped the lock[00:00:50]
And set the door agee[00:00:53]
Then crawled upon her hands and knees[00:00:55]
To see what it could be[00:00:57]
Then to the bells wi' a' her micht[00:01:07]
Sae loud she made thern ring[00:01:09]
Till faith l thoeht aboot my lugs[00:01:10]
The biggin she would bring[00:01:13]
And when she saw l wouldna slip[00:01:16]
She ran to the guidman[00:01:18]
Says There's a lad into the hoose And that l winna stand[00:01:20]
For it is a most disgraceful thing[00:01:26]
It would provoke a saunt[00:01:35]
To see a' the servant girls wi' lads[00:01:44]
When the gentle anes maun want[00:01:48]
Providence has acted wrang[00:01:52]
Sic pleasures for to gie[00:01:55]
Tae ony servant lad or lass[00:01:57]
Just working for a fee The auld man he cam' ben himsel' And he pushed ben his heid Guidfaith I thocht it was a ghost Just risen frae the deid He'd duddy draws upon his legs He'd on a cap o' white And he'd a face as lang's my leg And in his hand a light He's ta'en me by the shoulders broad An' pushed me oot o' doors Thinks I my auld lad I'll come back When sleepin' gars ye snore[00:01:59]
