If anyone was watching me they'd ha' thought I was daft, no doot!! "I love a lassie!" I hummed.

And then I thocht: "Noo--there's a bonny idea for a bit sang!" That time the melody came to me frae the first.

It was wi' the words I had the trouble.

I couldna do anything wi' them at a' at first.

So I put the bit I'd written awa'.
