whistle, and i'll e to you, my d
chorus.—o whistle, an' i'll e to ye, my d,
o whistle, an' i'll e to ye, my d,
tho' father an' mother an' a' should gae mad,
o whistle, an' i'll e to ye, my d.
but warily tent when ye e to court me,
and e nae uhe back-yett be a-jee;
syne up the back-stile, a naebody see,
and e as ye were na in' to me,
and e as ye were na in' to me.
o whistle an' i'll e, &c.
at kirk, or at market, whene'er ye meet me,
gang by me as tho' that ye car'd na a flie;
but steal me a blink o' your bonie bck e'e,
yet look as ye were na lookin' to me,
yet look as ye were na lookin' to me.
o whistle an' i'll e, &c.
aye vorotest that ye care na for me,
and whiles ye may lightly my beauty a-wee;
but court na aho' jokin' ye be,
for fear that she wile your fancy frae me,
for fear that she wile your fancy frae me.
o whistle an' i'll e, &c.
