WILLIE BREW'D A PECK O' MAUT.

O Willie brew'd a peck of maut,
And Rab and Allan cam to prie;
Three blyther lads that lee lang night,
Ye wadna fand in Christendie.

  We are na fou, we're na that fou,
   But just a wee drap in our ee;
  The cock may craw the day may daw
   But ay we'll taste the barley bree.

Here are we met, three merry boys,
Three merry boys I trow are we;
And mony a canty night we've seen,
And many mae we hope to see.
   We are na fou, &c.

It is the moon, I ken her horn,
That's blinkin in the lift sae hie;
She shines sae bright to wyle us hame,
But by my sooth she'll wait a wee.
   We are na fou, &c.

Wha first shall rise to gang awa,
A cuckold coward loop is he!
