CAM YE HERE TAE DANCE, CAM YE HERE FAE GOVAN

ILL GIE YE A SKELP, FOR CHATTING UP MY WOMAN

FOR YE WERE AT HER PLACE, YE WERE IN HER HOOSIE

I.M GONNAE BELT YER FACE, FOR SLEEPING WI MY BEAUTY

2

SHUGGIE HES THE MAN, THOUGH HES NO MUCH TAE LOOK AT

HE STOOD OUT IN THE RAIN, TILL HE WAS FAIRLY DROOKIT

HE THOUGHT THAT HE WOULD SPY, AND CATCH HER AT THE CHEATING

BUT THE POLIS LIFTED HIM, THEY SAID THAT HE WAS PEEPING

3

AND A HIS CLOTHES WERE BAD, HE GOT THEM OOT O OXFAM

HIS TROUSER LEGS TOO SHORT, HIS SLEEVES HUNG OFF HIS ARMS

HE WORE A TARTAN SHIRT, AND A TARTAN BONNET

AND A MULTI COLOURED TIE, AND GLASSES WI NONE IN IT

4

NOO SHUGGIES GONE TAE FRANCE, WI A BIG FAT LADY

WHEN THEY TRIED TAE DANCE, THE FOLK A LAUGHED LIKE CRAZY

THEYLL BE BACK QUITE SOON, FOR THEYVE BEEN DEPORTED

FOR FIGHTING HALF THE TOON, IT HAS BEEN REPORTED

5

HERE COMES TAM AND JOHN, THEYRE NO COCK A LORUM

THEY HAD TOO MUCH TOO DRINK, AND SLEPT WI SHUGGIES WOMAN

THEY HAD TO WAIT NINE MONTHS, TAE SEE WHO WAS THE FAITHER
