Nine popular songs/Coming through the Rye

COMING THROUGH THE RYE.

If a body meet a body comin’ through the rye,
If a body meet a body, need a body cry?
Every lassie has her laddie,
Nane, they say, hae I;
Yet a’ the lads they smile at me,
When comin’ through the rye.
Amang the train there is a swain
I dearly lo’o mysel’;
But whare his hame, or what his name,
I dinna care to tell.

If a body meet a body comin’ frae the toun,
If a body greet a body, need a body frown?
Every lassie has her laddie,
Nane, they say, hae I;
Yet a’ the lads they smile at me
When comin’ through the rye.
Amang the train there is a swain
I dearly lo’e mysel’;
But whare his hame, or what his name,
I dinna care to tell.
