THE WEE WEE MAN	C
	-
	-
As I was wa'king all alone	C
Between a water and a wa'	D
And there I spy'd a wee wee man	C
And he was the least that ere I saw	E
	-
	-
His legs were scarce a shathmont's length	F
And thick and thimber was his thigh	G
Between his brows there was a span	C
And between his shoulders there was three	B
	-
	-
He took up a meikle stane	C
And he flang 't as far as I could see	B
Though I had been a Wallace wight	H
I couldna liften't to my knee	B

'O wee wee man but thou be strang	I
O tell me where thy dwelling be '	-
'My dwelling's down at yon bonny bower	J
O will you go with me and see '	-
	-
	-
On we lap and awa' we rade	H
Till we came to yon bonny green	C
We lighted down for to bait our horse	K
And out there came a lady fine	C
	-
	-
Four and twenty at her back	L
And they were a' clad out in green	C
Though the King of Scotland had been there	M
The warst o' them might hae been his queen	C
	-
	-
On we lap and awa' we rade	H
Till we came to yon bonny ha'	N
Whare the roof was o' the beaten gould	H
And the floor was o' the cristal a'	O
	-
	-
When we came to the stair foot	H
Ladies were dancing jimp and sma'	A
But in the twinkling of an eye	G
My wee wee man was clean awa'	D
