'Twas John kiss'd Dolly, and Dick hiss'd Betty,
And Joe kiss'd Molly, and Dorthy Draggletail,
And Kitty was a charming maid.
To carry the milk-pail.
Dame Durden in the morn so soon,
She did begin to bawl,
To rouse her servant maids and men,
She did most loudly call.
'Twas Moll and Bet, &c.
'Twas on the morn of Valentine,
The birds began to prate,
Dame Durden's servant maids and men,
They all began to mate.
'Twas Moll and Bet, &c.
O'ER THE MUIR AMANG THE HEATHER.
Comin' through the craigs o' Kyle,
Amang the bonnie blooming heather,
There I met a bonnie lassie,
Keeping a' her ewes thegither.
O'er the muir amang the heather,
O'er the muir amang the heather
There I met a bonnie lassie
Keeping a' her ewes thegither.
Says I, my dear, where is thy hame?
In muir, or dale, pray tell me whither?
Says she, I tend the fleecy flocks
That feed amang the blooming heather
O'er the muir, &c.
