Auld Lang Syne
Auld Lang Syne
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne!
Chorus.
-For auld lang syne, my dear,
-For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
And surely ye'll be your pint stowp!
And surely I'll be mine!
And we'll tak a cup o'kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
For auld, &c.
We twa hae run about the braes,
And pou'd the gowans fine;
But we've wander'd mony a weary fit,
Sin' auld lang syne.
For auld, &c.
We twa hae paidl'd in the
burn,
Frae morning sun till dine;
But seas between us braid hae
roar'd
Sin' auld lang syne.
For auld, &c.
And there's a hand, my trusty fere!
And gie's a hand o' thine!
And we'll tak a right gude-willie waught,
For auld lang syne.
For auld, &c.
My Love,
She's But A Lassie Yet
My love, she's but a lassie yet!
We'll let her stand a year or twa,
She'll no be half sae saucy yet!
I rue the day I sought her, O!
I rue the day I sought her, O!
Wha gets her need na say he's woo'd,
But he may say he has bought her, O.
Come draw a drap o' the best o't yet,
Come draw a drap o' the best o't yet!
Gae seek for pleasure whare ye will,
But here I never miss'd it yet.
We're a'dry wi' drinkin o't,
We're a'dry wi' drinkin o't!
The minister kiss't the fiddler's wife-
He could na preach for thinkin o't!

I
dearly like the west,
For there the bonnie lassie lives,
The
lassie I lo'e best:
There wild woods grow, and rivers row,
And
monie a hill between;
But day and night my fancy's flight
Is
ever wi' my Jean.
I see her in the dewy flowers,
I see
her sweet and fair:
I hear her in the tunefu' birds,
I hear
her charm the air:
There 's not a bonnie flower that springs
By
fountain, shaw, or green;
There 's not a bonnie bird that sings,
But
minds me o' my Jean
