Oh, Johnny my man, do you no think o' risin'
The day is weel spent and
the nicht's coming on
Your siller's a' done and the gill stoup is empty
Oh rise up, my
Johnny, and come awa' hame
The bairnies at hame are roarin' and greetin'
Nae meal in
the barrel tae fill their wee wames
You sit here drinkin' and leave me lamentin'
Oh rise
up, my Johnny, and come awa' hame
Wha's that at the door that's speakin' sae
kindly
It's the voice o' my ain wifie, Maggie by name
Come in, my dear lassie, and sit
doon aside me
Na, rise up, my Johnny, and come awa' hame
Oh Johnny, my man, dae ye
mind o' the courtin'
Nae ale-house or tavern ere ran in your mind
We spent the lang days
mid the sweet smellin' roses
And ne'er gie'd a thocht towards gaun awa' hame
Oh weel
dae I mind the times that ye speak o'
But they days have passed and will ne'er come
again
Just think on the present, we'll try for tae mend it
So gie's your hand Maggie, and
I'll awa' hame
When Johnny rase up, he banged the door open
Sayin', cursed be the
ale-hoose that e'er let me in
And wae tae the whiskey that mak's me aye thirsty
So fare
thee well, whiskey, and I'll awa' hame
@drink @home
