robin shure in hairst

chorus.—robin shure in hairst,

i shure wi' him.

fient a heuk had i,

yet i stack by him.

i gaed up to dunse,

to warp a wab o' plaiden,

at his daddie's yett,

wha met me but robin:

robin shure, &c.

was na robin bauld,

tho' i was a cotter,

play'd me sic a trick,

an' me the el'er's dochter!

robin shure, &c.

robin promis'd me

a' my winter vittle;

fient haet he had but three

guse-feathers and a whittle!

robin shure, &c.
