The Book of Scottish Song/Lady Onlie

Lady Onlie.

[Manufactured by Burns for Johnson's Museum from an old song to the tune of "The Ruffian's Rant," or "Roy's Wife."]

A' the lads o' Thornie-bank,
When they gae to the shore o' Bucky,
They'll step in and tak' a pint
Wi' lady Onlie, honest lucky!
Lady Onlie, honest lucky,
Brews guid ale at shore o' Bucky;
I wish her sale for her guid ale,
The best on a' the shore o' Bucky.

Her house sae bien, her curshe sae clean,
I wat she is a dainty chucky;
And cheerlie blinks the ingle-gleed
Of lady Onlie, honest lucky!
Lady Onlie, &c.
