O can you sew cushions

O can ye sew cushions, and can ye sew sheets,

And can ye sing balla loo when the bairn greets,

And hee and baw birdie, and hee and baw lamb,

And hee and baw birdie, my bonny wee lamb?

Hee O, wee O, what wou'd I do wi' you?

Black's the life that I lead wi' you;

Mony o' you, little for to gi' you,

Hee O, wee O, what wou'd I do wi' you?
