The Bob o’ Dumblane {Lassie, Lend Me Your Braw Hemp Heckle }

LASSIE, lend me your braw hemp-heckle,
And I'll lend you my thrippling kame:
My heckle is broken, it canna be gotten,
And we'll gae dance the Bob o' Dumblane.----

Twa gaed to the wood, to the wood, to the wood,
Twa gaed to the wood, three cam hame:
An ‘t be na weel bobbit, weel bobbit, weel bobbit,
An ‘t be na weel bobbit, we'll bob it again.----
