Comin Thro' The Rye

Comin Thro' The Rye

O, Jenny's a' weet, poor body,

Jenny's seldom dry: 

She draigl't a' her petticoatie, 

Comin thro' the rye! 

Comin thro' the rye, poor body, 

Comin thro' the rye, 

She draigl't a' her petticoatie, 

Comin thro' the rye! 

Gin a body meet a body 

Comin thro' the rye, 

Gin a body kiss a body, 

Need a body cry? 

Gin a body meet a body 

Comin thro' the glen, 

Gin a body kiss a body, 

Need the warl' ken? 

Gin a body meet a body

Comin thro' the grain;

Gin a body kiss a body, 

The thing's a body's ain. 

Robert Burns
