Tune-"The Job of Journey-work."
Altho' my back be at the wa', / And tho' he be the fautor; / Altho' my back be at the wa', / Yet, here's his health in water. / O wae gae by his wanton sides, / Sae brawlie's he could flatter; / Till for his sake I'm slighted sair, / And dree the kintra clatter: / But tho' my back be at the wa', / And tho' he be the fautor; / But tho' my back be at the wa', / Yet here's his health in water!
