| Lyrics: | WHEN I WAS NOO BUT SWEET SIXTEEN
When I was noo but sweet sixteen,
In beauty just a
bloomin', O
O little, little did I think
At nineteen I'd be greetin',
O.
cho: For the plooman lads are gay weel lads
They're false and
they're deceiving, O
They'll gang awa', they'll sail awa'
And leave
their lasses greetin', O
If I'd a kent what I do ken
And done my mother's biddin',
O
I would not be here at your fireside
Cryin' "Hishie ba, ma bairnie, O"
O,
hishie ba, for I'm your ma,
But the Lord knows where's your daddy, O
But I'll take good
care, and I'll be aware
O' the young men in the gloaming, O
When I was noo but sweet
sixteen,
In beauty just a bloomin', O
O little, little did I think
At nineteen I'd be
greetin', O.
