O'er Carmally tramps and the hawker lads, And gatherers of law,
tramps the country round and round, Come listening and all.
I'll tell to ye a rovin' tale, O sights that I ha' seen,
snowy north, And sooth by Gretna green.
[D] I've laughed and [G] tamed myself, When trudging on the road,
My toe-rags around my blistered feet, My face as brown as toad.
We lumps a cake and tatty scones, We wangs a braxy [Em] ham,
a' where [G] I've come, And lest a' where I'm gone,
tramps the country round and round, Come listening and all.
I'll tell to ye a rovin' tale, O sights that I ha' seen,
snowy north, And sooth by Gretna green.
[D] I've laughed and [G] tamed myself, When trudging on the road,
My toe-rags around my blistered feet, My face as brown as toad.
We lumps a cake and tatty scones, We wangs a braxy [Em] ham,
a' where [G] I've come, And lest a' where I'm gone,

_ [G] No bein' a [D] thought for a' where [G] I've come, And lest a' where I'm gone,
I've done my [G] share a-humpin' We the _ dockers and _ _ _ Clyde.
I've helped in bucky _ -trawlers, All the head and hour side. _ _
_ _ I've helped to build the mighty _ bridge, That spans the busy forth,
And we money and angus famers trig, I've ploughed the _ bonny earth.
I'm happy in the summer time, _ Beneath the bright blue _ sky,
No thinkin' in the mornin' where, At night I'll hate to _ lie.
In barn or byre or _ anywhere, Dossin' out among the hay,
_ And if the [D] weather treats me right, I'm happy every day. _ _ _ _ _ _
