The Honest Reever
Ah spent the nicht in the
heather moor,
Hiding fae the King’s men.
Thanks tae the heather fluer,
Ah’ll spend the nicht wi kinsmen.
Ah’m no guilty o that
deed wis done,
Ah’m innocent o awthings.
Bit noo they hunt mi wi the gun,
Ind aw the force the law brings.
An honest reever cannie
dae,
The things he dis the best.
Ah stole yin coo is whit they say,
Thank God, they mist the rest. |
