Galloway Tam

O Galloway Tam came here to woo,

I'd rather we'd gin him the brawnit cow;

For our lass Bess may curse and ban

The wanton wit o' Galloway Tam.

O Galloway Tam came here to shear,

I'd rather we'd gin him the gude gray mare;

He kist the gudewife and strack the gudeman,

And that's the tricks o' Galloway Tam.
