Ben J W Anthony - Tibbie Fowler O' The Glen

Tibbie Fowler o' the glen
There's o'er mony wooin at her
Tibbie Fowler o' the glen
There's o'er mony wooin at her
Wooin at her, pu'in at her
Courtin at her, canna get her
Filthy elf, it's for her pelf
That a' the lads are wooin at her
Ten cam east, and ten cam west
Ten came rowin o'er the water
Twa came doon the lang dyke side
There's twa and thirty wooin at her
Wooin at her, pu'in at her
Courtin at her, canna get her
Filthy elf, it's for her pelf
That a' the lads are wooin at her
There's seven but, and seven ben
Seven in the pantry wi' her
Twenty head about the door
There's ane and forty wooin at her
Wooin at her, pu'in at her
Courtin at her, canna get her
Filthy elf, it's for her pelf
That a' the lads are wooin at her
She's got pendles in her lugs
Cockle-shells wad set her better
High-heel'd shoon and siller tags
And a' the lads are wooin at her
Wooin at her, pu'in at her
Courtin at her, canna get her
Filthy elf, it's for her pelf
That a' the lads are wooin at her
Be a lassie e'er sae black
An she hae the name o' siller
Set her upo' Tintock-tap
The wind will blaw a man until her
Wooin at her, pu'in at her
Courtin at her, canna get her
Filthy elf, it's for her pelf
That a' the lads are wooin at her
Be a lassie e'er sae fair
An she want the pennie siller
A lie may fell her in the air
Before a man be even till her
Wooin at her, pu'in at her
Courtin at her, canna get her
Filthy elf, it's for her pelf
That a' the lads are wooin at her
Tibbie Fowler o' the glen
There's o'er mony wooin at her
Tibbie Fowler o' the glen
There's o'er mony wooin at her
Wooin at her, pu'in at her
Courtin at her, canna get her
Filthy elf, it's for her pelf
That a' the lads are wooin at her
Wooin at her, pu'in at her
Courtin at her, canna get her
Filthy elf, it's for her pelf
That a' the lads are wooin at her
