Comin' Thro' the Rye

Gin a body meet a body

Comin' thro' the rye

Gin a body kiss a body

Need a body cry?

Ilka lassie has her laddie

Nane, they say, hae I

Yet a' the lads they smile at me

When comin' thro' the rye.

Gin a body meet a body

Comin' frae the town

Gin a body kiss a body

Need a body frown?

Ilka lassie has her laddie

Nane, they say, hae I

Yet a' the lads they smile at me

When comin' thro' the rye.

'Mang the train there is a swain

I dearly lo'e myself

But what his name or whaur his hame

I dinna care to tell

Ilka lassie has her laddie

Nane, they say, hae I

Yet a' the lads they smile at me

When comin' thro' the rye.
