Amang the trees where humming bees | B |
At buds and flowers were hinging O | C |

And to her pipe was singing O | C |

She dirl'd them aff fu' clearly O | C |
When there cam a yell o' foreign squeels | E |
That dang her tapsalteerie O | C |

Their capon craws and queer ha ha's | E |
They made our lugs grow eerie O | C |
The hungry bike did scrape and pike | F |
'Till we were wae and weary O | C |
But a royal ghaist wha ance was cas'd | G |
A prisoner aughteen year awa | H |
He fir'd a fiddler in the north | I |
That dang them tapsalteerie O | C |
