They took me to the Haly Band
β’Ό CONTAINS SCENES OF A SEXUAL NATURE
They took me to the haly band,
For playing bye my wife, Sir;
And lang and sair they lectur'd me,
For hadin' sic a life, Sir.
I answer'd in na mony words,
"What deel needs a' this clatter;
"As lang as she cou'd keep the grip
"I aye was mowing at her".
