O rattlin' roarin ' Willie Oh he held to the fair An' for to sell his fiddle An' buy some other ware But partin' wi' his fiddle The saut tear blint his eye And rattlin' roarin' Willie Ye're welcome hame to me! O Willie, come sell your fiddle O sell your fiddle sae fine O Willie, come sell your fiddle And buy a pint o' wine! If I should sell my fiddle The warl' would think I was mad For mony a rantin' day My fiddle and I ha'e had. As I cam' by Chrochallan I cannily keekit ben Rattlin' roarin' Willie Was sitting at yon board en' Sitting at yone board en' And amang guid companie Rattlin' roarin' Willie Ye're welcome hame to me! |
