Ben J W Anthony - The Shepherd's Wife

The Shepherd's wife cries o'er the knowe
Will ye come hame, will ye come hame
The Shepherd's wife cries o'er the knowe
Will ye come hame again een, jo
O what will ye gie me tae my supper
Gin I come hame, gin I come hame
O what will ye gie me tae my supper
Gin I come hame again een, jo
Ye'se get a panfu' o' plumping parridge
And butter in them, and butter in them
Ye'se get a panfu' o' plumping parridge
Gin ye'll come hame again een, jo
Ha, ha, how! that's naething that dow
I winna come hame, I canna come hame
Ha, ha, how! that's naething that dow
I winna come hame again een, jo
A reeking fat hen, weel fryed i' the pan
Gin ye'll come hame, gin ye'll come hame
A reekin fat hen, weel fryed i' the pan
Gin ye'll come hame again e'en jo
Ha, ha, how! that's naething that dow
I winna come hame, I canna come hame
Ha, ha, how! that's naething that dow
I winna come hame again een, jo
A weel made bed and a pair o' clean sheets
Gin ye'll come hame, gin ye'll come hame
A weel made bed and a pair o' clean sheets
Gin ye'll come hame again een, jo
Ha, ha, how! that's naething that dow
I winna come hame, I canna come hame
Ha, ha, how! that's naething that dow
I winna come hame again een, jo
A luving wife in lily-white linens
Gin ye'll come hame, gin ye'll come hame
A luving wife in lily-white linens
Gin ye'll come hame again een, jo
Ha, ha, how! that's something that dow
I will come hame, I will come hame
Ha, ha, how! that's something that dow
I will come hame again een jo
Ha, ha, how! that's something that dow
I will come hame, I will come hame
Ha, ha, how! that's something that dow
I will come hame again een jo
