johnie d, cock up your beaver
when first my brave johnie d came to this town,
he had a blue bohat wahe ;
but now he has gotten a hat and a feather,
hey, brave johnie d, cock up your beaver!
cock up your beaver, and cock it fu' sprush,
we'll over the border, and gie them a brush;
there's somebody there we'll teach better behaviour,
hey, brave johnie d, cock up your beaver!
