O Gin I had her

O gin I had her,O gin I had her,O gin I had her,Black altho' she be;I wad lay her bale,I'd gar her spew her kail;She ne'er sou'd keep a meal,Till she dandl'd it on her knee.

She says I am lightTo manage matters right,That I've nae might or weightTo fill a lassie's pock;But wad she tak' a yokin',I'd soon set her a bockin',I'd set a cradle rockin',Wi' a sample o' the stock.
