JOHN ANDERSON MY JO JOHN.
John Anderson my jo, John,
When we were first acquaint,
Your locks ware like the raven,
Your bonnie brown was brent;
But now your brow is bauld, John,
Your locks are like the snaw,
But blessing on your frosty pow,
John Anderson my jo.

Now we maun totter down, John,
But hand in hand we'll go,
And sleep thegither at the foot,
