See care is tied—his smile how gay,
When owre a pint o‘ barley bree.
French brandy &c.


Gif onie ane in barlock-hood,
Should wi‘ his neibour disagree;
Let them baith gang in jovial mood,
And settled owe the barley bree.
French brandy &c.


For harley drink wad they but think,
It’s cheaper than a lawyers fees;
Though sairly vext ay mind the text,
‘ It's hest to tak a pint and gree.'
French brandy Rec.


I've seen a child could hardly speak,
When not a drap was in his ee;
But he could lecture for a week,
Just gie him ay the whisky, free.
French brandy &e.


Whan I’ve a baubee in my pouch,
I aften birl it frank and free;
Then care can never mak me crouch;
The life of man is barley bree.
French brandy &c.
