| 516. Song—I’ll aye ca’ in by yon town |
| | | | | Air—“I’ll gang nae mair to yon toun.” |
| |
| |
| Chorus—I’ll aye ca’ in by yon town, | |
| And by yon garden-green again; | |
| I’ll aye ca’ in by yon town, | |
| And see my bonie Jean again. | |
| |
| THERE’S nane sall ken, there’s nane can guess | 5 |
| What brings me back the gate again, | |
| But she, my fairest faithfu’ lass, | |
| And stownlins we sall meet again. | |
| I’ll aye ca’ in, &c. | |
| |
| She’ll wander by the aiken tree, | 10 |
| When trystin time draws near again; | |
| And when her lovely form I see, | |
| O haith! she’s doubly dear again. | |
| I’ll aye ca’ in, &c. | |
