Tune—Auld wife about the fire

'O wae light on his on his sulky snout,
A pawky sow has found him out,
And turn'd her tail to Geordie.
The sow's tail till him yet.
The sows tail will kill him yet,
The sows tail is till him yet,
The sows tail to Geordie,

It's Geordie he ⟨came⟩ the town,
Wi' a bunch o' turnips on his crown:
"Aha!" quo she I'll pu' them down.
And turn my tail to Geordie
The sows tail is tiil him yet.

It's Geodie he gat up to dance.
And wi’ the sow to tak’ a prance,
And aye she gart her hurdies ⟨flounce⟩
And turned her tail to Geordie,
The sows tail &c.

The sow came round him wi' bang,
"Aha" quo she "there's something wrang
I'll turn my tail to Geordie.
The Sows tail, &c.

But Geordie fall and brak his face,
"Aha" quo she ive won the race.
And turn'd my tail to Geordie".
