The Ranting Dog
(Robert Burns)
O wha my babie clouts will buy?
Wha will tent me when I cry?
Wha will kiss me where I lie?
The rantin` dog, the daddie o`t.
Wha will own he did the faut?
Wha will buy the groanin` maut?
Wha will tell me how to ca`t?
The rantin` dog, the daddie o`t.
When I mount the creepie-chair
Wha will sit beside me there?
Gie me Rob, I`ll seek nae mair
The rantin` dog, the daddie o`t.
Wha will crack to me my lane?
Wha will make me fidgin fain?
Wha will kiss me o`er again?
The rantin` dog, the daddie o`t.
Note: tent = care for; faut = fault; groanin maut = ale for
midwife and friends; creepie-chair = stool of repentence;
crack = talk; my lane = alone; fidgin fain = horny or randy
