Ere Whamnera Toon Surpasses for
Honest Men and Bonny Lasses
Robert Burns was himself born
and thought the incident important
enough to be remembered in song
as if any of us would ever forget
was a lad was born in Kyle
and wouldn't a day oh wouldn't a style
A dude, it's hardly worth the while,
Davey, say nice wae Robin
rantin' rovin', rantin' rovin'
wae a rantin' rovin' robin'
Poor monarch's hen most cheer,
but yane was five and twenty
T 'was then a blast o' jang war,
wind blew Hansel in on Robin
rantin' rovin', rantin' rovin'.
we're rantin' rovin', rovin'.
The gossip keek it in his loo,
for she who lives will see the proof.
His wally boy will be nae Koofah Duke,
rantin' rovin', rantin' rovin'
wae a rantin' rovin' rovin'
but aye, a hert up in the maw
He'll be a credit tae us,
or say he's the only rovin'
rantin' rovin', rantin' rovin'.
we're rantin' rovin', rovin'.
And share is three, times three make nine,
I see by Ilka scoring line.
This lad will dearly like her kind,
rantin' rovin', rantin' rovin'
we're rantin' rovin', rovin'
Faithful she, I do ye gar,
the bonnie lassies lie a spar
For all yer faught ye may he war,
say blessings on thee, Robin
runnin' rovin', runnin' rovin'
we are runnin' rovin', rovin'
