O wat ye what my minnie did

O wat ye what my minnie did,

My minnie did, my minnie did,

O wat ye what my minnie did

On Tysday 't een to me, jo?

She laid me in a saft bed,

A saft bed, a saft bed,

She laid me in a saft bed,

And bade gudeen to me, jo.

An' wat ye what the parson did,

The parson did, the parson did,

An' wat ye what the parson did,

A' for a penny fee, jo?

He loosed on me a lang man,

A mickle man, a strang man,

He loosed on me a lang man,

That might hae worried me, jo.

An' I was but a young thing,

A young thing, a young thing,

An' I was but a young thing,

Wi' nane to pity me, jo.

I wat the kirk was in the wyte,

In the wyte, in the wyte,

To pit a young thing in a fright

An' loose a man on me, jo.
