Broom Besoms [B]
â’¼ CONTAINS SOME SCENES OF A SEXUAL NATURE
Young and souple was I, when I lap the dyke;
Now I'm auld and frail, I douna step a syke.
Buy broom besoms! Wha will buy them now;
Fine heather ringers, better never grew.
Young and souple was I, when at Lautherslack,
Now I'm auld and frail, and lie at Nansie's back.
Buy broom besoms! Wha will buy them now;
Fine heather ringers, better never grew.
Had she gien me butter, when she gae me bread,
I wad looked baulder, wi' my beld head.
Buy broom besoms! Wha will buy them now;
Fine heather ringers, better never grew.
