Young Jockey was the blythest lad | B |

He roos'd my waist sae genty sma' | F |
And ay my heart came to my mou' | F |
When ne'er a body heard or saw | G |

My Jockey toils upon the plain | H |
Thro' wind and weet thro' frost and snaw | H |
And o'er the lea I leuk fu' fain | H |
When Jockey's owsen hameward ca' | A |
An' ay the night comes round again | H |
When in his arms he takes me a' | I |
An' ay he vows he'll be my ain | H |
As lang's he has a breath to draw | G |
