I COFT a stane o' haslock woo.
To mak a wab to Johnie o't ;
For Johnie is my only jo —
I lo'e him best of onie yet !
Chorus. The cardin o't, the spinnin o't.
The warptn o't, the winnin o't;
When ilka ell cost me a groat.
The tailor staw the lynin o't.
For tho' his locks be Ij'art gray,
And tho' his brow be held aboon,
Yet I hae seen him on a day
The pride of a' the parishen.
