THE RANTIN DOG THE DADDIE O'T.
TUNE—'EAST NOOK O' FIFE.'
O wha my babie-clouts will buy?Wha will tent me when I cry?Wha will kiss me whare I lie?The rantin dog the daddie o't.
Wha will own he did the faut?Wha will buy my groanin maut?Wha will tell me how to ca't?The rantin dog the daddie o't.
When I mount the creepie-chair,Wha will sit beside me there?Gie me Rob, I seek nae mair,The rantin dog the daddie o't.
Wha will crack to me my lane?Wha will mak me fidgin fain?Wha will kiss me o'er again?The rantin dog the daddie o't.
