A Winsome Lass & The Bonny Boy

The Bonny Boy

The Bonny Boy                      

by Owain Glyn

Now listen here my winsome lass

I dinnae want to sound too crass;

I want us two to be a we

and you can come and live for free.

Your cooking is nae up to much,

just beans with buttered bread and such.

I'm a neeps and haggis man,

with tatties if I ever can.

I'm looking for some love and solace

While you look more like William Wallace!

Shocking fiery flaming hair

painted blue most everywhere.

As for the chimp, well he's my pet -

a better friend I'll never get.

So wee girl it's up to yee

Ye'll not find a better tree.
