COMIN' THRO' THE RYE

Reading edition · Edition 2

O, Jenny's a' weet, poor body, Jenny's seldom dry; She draigl't a' her petticoatie, Comin' thro' the rye. Comin' thro' the rye, poor body, Comin' thro' the rye, She draigl't a' her petticoatie, Comin' thro' the rye! Gin a body meet a body— Comin' thro' the rye; Gin a body kiss a body— Need a body cry? Gin a body meet a body Comin' thro' the glen, Gin a body kiss a body— Need the warld ken? Jenny's a' weet, poor body; Jenny's seldom dry; She draigl't a' her petticoatie, Comin' thro' the rye.
