Comin' Thro' the Rye
Comin thro’ the rye, poor body,
Comin thro’ the rye,
She draigl’t a’ her petticoatie
Comin thro’ the rye.
Oh Jenny’s a’ weet, poor body,
Jenny’s seldom dry;
She draigl’t a’ her petticoatie
Comin thro’ the rye.Gin a body meet a body
Comin’ thro’ the rye,
Gin a body kiss a body
Need a body cry.Gin a body meet a body
Comin’ thro’ the glen;
Gin a body kiss a body
Need the warld ken!
- Robert Burns
