Summary

Fragments of Harry Lauder's 'Wee Jean MacGregor':

Ah'm in luve wi a bonnie wee lass - Wee Jean MacGregor, o,
Ah luve her 'cause she's lots of brass - Wee Jean MacGregor, o.
Ah met her yae nicht at the spree, she wis sittin next tae me,
She says "Ah luve you, dae you luve me?" - Wee Jean MacGregor, o.

The next day we went for a sail, me an Jean MacGregor, o,
The wind it blew a terrible gale on me an Jean MacGregor, o,
She says "Sandy, will we sink?", an Ah says "Oh no, I don't think"
Fir if we dae we'll baith get a drink, me an Jean MacGregor, o.
