Jock Since Ever/ Macaphee/ Ho Ho Bonny Lass

Jock Since Ever:

Jock since ever I saw yer face

Jock since ever I kent ye

Jock since ever I saw yer face

Dae ye mind o’ the shilling I lent ye?

I lost my love an’ I dinna ken hoo

I lost my live an’ I care not

The losin’ o’ wan’s the gainin’ o’ two

I’ll find me anither I fear na’

Jock since ever I saw yer face

Jock since ever I kent ye

Jock since ever I saw yer face

Dae ye mind o’ the shilling I lent ye?

I lost my love an’ I dinna ken hoo

I lost my live an’ I care not

The losin’ o’ wan’s the gainin’ o’ two

I’ll find me anither I fear na’

Jock since ever I saw yer face

Jock since ever I kent ye

Jock since ever I saw yer face

Dae ye mind o’ the shilling I lent ye?

I lost my love an’ I dinna ken hoo

I lost my live an’ I care not

The losin’ o’ wan’s the gainin’ o’ two

I’ll find me anither I fear na’

Ho ho bonnie lass wha’ gied ye the wean?

Ho ho bonnie lass wha’ gied ye the wean?

Row an’ tow an’ tucky suckin’ porridge wi’ a spoon

Row an’ tow an’ tucky suckin’ porridge wi’ a spoon

A bum bee stung me doon amang the glaur

A bum bee stung me doon amang the glaur

Ti di di diddly idle deedle idle dum
