When first my brave Johnie lad came to this town,
|
He had a blue bonnet that wanted the crown;
|
But now he has gotten a hat and a feather,
|
Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver!
|
|
Cock up your beaver, and cock it fu' sprush,
|
We'll over the border, and gie them a brush;
|
There's somebody there we'll teach better behaviour,
|
Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver!
|
