Henderson on 22nd February, 2006
to a medley comprising:
'My Home in Indiana',
'Me and My Gal', and,
'Dark Town Strutters' Ball'!
Listen to the music here
Och-ay a've aince mair been screevin ma binders
Tae sen tae loats freens a canna see
A fun a guid wee tune, tirn its wirds richt upsid doon
Nane thon sae glaigit thochts pleese me, hee-hee-hee-hee-hee
Ma wirk'd oot rhymes haud nae contreevance
A nait fit they've aye goat tae be
Bit the auld doric's aft maist-lik con-vain-i-ent
Gin soondin gytie tae a fowks, exceptin me
The wye a dae it's tae tap wi ma feet
Fer thon's the shair wye tune gies me the beat
Syne a screeve oot labbach, wi'oot ony bit versin
Fore allooin midi meesic tae jist rin an rin an rin
An me bein clivver a seen stert tae win
An fore lang, a hiv seen eek'd ma eeswally spin
Thit wull mak a ma cheenas yoke thur gigglin
Anse rowl aboot the flair
Wi maze shair an wi laachter sair
Aiblins a shidnae sen ye sae mony dogg'rels
Syne stappin ye gittin muckle oot yer myn
Noo cheenas, thon's a gin

Lik tae chirm lood wyes oot o tune
Fit wid fesh naithin bit a froon
An mak ye wiss insteed me dogg'rel agin
Aiblins a shidnae sen ye sae mony dogg'rels
Syne stappin ye gittin muckle oot yer myn
Noo cheenas, thon's a gin

Rist asseer'd fan a stap ma screevin
Wi muckle waar, a micht ye be deevin
Lik tae chirm lood wyes oot o tune
Fit wid fesh naithin bit a froon
An mak ye wiss insteed a dogg'rel oan ....
Ay, wiss insteed a dogg'rel ....
