‘She’ll milk your cows, she’ll carry your corn,

She’ll gang to the mill or the kiln;

She’ll saddle your steed at any time of need,

And she’ll brush up your boots hersel.’

‘It’s who will bake my bridal bread?

Or who will brew my ale?

Or who will welcome this bonnie lassie in?

For it’s more than I can tell.’
