my mither men’t my auld breeks and wow, but they were
duddy o
and sent me tae get shod the meer at robin tamson’s
smiddy o
the smiddy stans ayout the burn a wee bit frae the
clachan o
i never yet gaed by the door but fat i fell a-lachin o
auld robin was a wealthy carl an’ had a bonnie dochter
o
he widnae lat her tak’ a man tho’ mony ane had socht
her o
but fat think ye o my exploit the time the mare was
shooin’ o?
i went in tae robin’s pet and briskly fell a-wooin’ o
chorus:
fal a doo a di do
fal de doo a daddy o
fal de doo a di do
auld robin tamson’s smiddy o
and aye she e’ed my auld breeks the time that we were
crackin’ o
says i, “my l-ss, ne’er mind the clouts, there’s new
anes for the makin’ o
gin ye’ll consent tae come wi’ me an’ lea the carl yer
faither o
ye’ll get my breeks tae keep in trim, mysel’ and a’
thegither o”
(chorus)
“indeed,” quo she, “your offer’s fair, i really think
i’ll tak’ it o
gang ye awa’, get oot the mare, we’ll baith sit on the
back o’t o
for gin i wait my faither’s time, i’ll wait ’til i be
fifty o
but i will marry in my prime and mak’ a wife sae
thrifty o”
noo robin wis an angry carl at tinin o his dochter o
through a’ the kintrae side he ran an’ far and near he
sought her o
bit fin he cam’ to oor fireside and fan us baith
thegither o
quo i, “guid man, i’ve ta’en yer bairn, an’ ye can tak
my mither o”
(chorus)
auld robin girned and scrathed his pow, “guid sooth,”
quo he, “ye’re merry o
but i’ll e’en tak ye at yer word and end this hurry
burry o”
so robin an’ our auld guid wife agreed tae keep
thegither o
so i hae robin tamson’s pet and rob has ta’en my mither
o
(chorus 2x)
