The Stuttering Lovers
A wee bit over the lee me' lads
A wee bit over the green
The birds went into the poor man's corn
I fear they'll never be
S... S... Seen me lads
I fear they'll never be seen.
Then up came a bonnie wee lass
And she was one so fair
And she went into the poor man's corn to
See if the birds were
Th... Th... There me lads
To see if the birds were there.
Then up came a bonnie wee lad
And he was a fisherman's son.
And he went into the poor man's corn to
See where the birds had
Ru... Ru.Run me lads
To see where the birds had run
And he kissed her on the cheek, m' lad
And he kissed her on the chin
Ah... don't be kissing me, my wee lad
I fear it t'is
S... S... Sin me lad
I fear it t'is a sin
He kissed her once
And he kissed her twice
He kissed her ten times 'ore
IT'S nice to be kissing a bonnie wee lass
Who's never been kissed
B... B... Before me lads
Who's never been kissed before.
Then out came a poor old man
And he was tattered and torn.
IF, THAT's the way you'll be mindin' me birds
I'll do it me'self in the
M... M... M... M... Morn me lads
I'll do it m'self in the morn.
A wee bit over the green
The birds went into the poor man's corn
I fear they'll never be
S... S... Seen me lads
I fear they'll never be seen.
Then up came a bonnie wee lass
And she was one so fair
And she went into the poor man's corn to
See if the birds were
Th... Th... There me lads
To see if the birds were there.
Then up came a bonnie wee lad
And he was a fisherman's son.
And he went into the poor man's corn to
See where the birds had
Ru... Ru.Run me lads
To see where the birds had run
And he kissed her on the cheek, m' lad
And he kissed her on the chin
Ah... don't be kissing me, my wee lad
I fear it t'is
S... S... Sin me lad
I fear it t'is a sin
He kissed her once
And he kissed her twice
He kissed her ten times 'ore
IT'S nice to be kissing a bonnie wee lass
Who's never been kissed
B... B... Before me lads
Who's never been kissed before.
Then out came a poor old man
And he was tattered and torn.
IF, THAT's the way you'll be mindin' me birds
I'll do it me'self in the
M... M... M... M... Morn me lads
I'll do it m'self in the morn.
