duncan davison

there was a lass, they ca'd her meg,

and she held o'er the moors to spin;

there was a lad that follow'd her,

they ca'd him duncan davison.

the moor was dreigh, and meg was skeigh,

her favour duncan could na win;

for wi' the rock she wad him knock,

and aye she shook the temper-pin.

as o'er the moor they lightly foor,

a burn was clear, a glen was green,

upon the banks they eas'd their shanks,

and aye she set the wheel between:
