Cum Hyem Wi' Me!

Teun-"When Johnny comes marching Home."

Cuy hyem for once, an' divent gan in;
Cum hyem, me lad;
Ye'll not get drunk if ye divvent begin,
Ye'll not be bad.
Cum hyem, me lad, for ye want ne glass;
Cum hyem te yor tea, an' save yor brass,
An' ye'll find it's the best
If ye'll only cum hyem wi' me!

Korus
An' ye'll find yor-sel se clivor, se clivor,
Ye'll not get up, as ye de, iv a shivor;
Far better then ivor, ye'll say that ye'll nivvor
Gan oot ony mair on the spree.

Efter workin se hard for a' the week,
Ye want a rest;
An' hyem's the place for comfort te seek-
Ye'll find it's best;
A fuddle the neet mair harm wad de
Then yor heaviest wark- so cum wi' me,
An' ye'll find it's the best
If ye'll only cum hyem wi' me!

Hoo knockt-up ye war last Monday morn,
Ye knaw, ye said,
If ye got better ye'd tyek a turn,
An' ne mair hed;
But when yor better ye clean forget
Hoo bad ye've been- on the spree ye get;
But ye'll find it's the best
If ye'll only cum hyem wi' me!

Just try this once, an' obliging me,
Ye'll please us weel;
An' then I' the morn forst-rate ye'll be,
Forst-rate ye'll feel:
Ye'll not suffer owt like what aw've seen:
Ye'll not be shakin the way ye've been;
But ye' ll find it's the best
If ye'll only cum hyem wi' me!

Cum hyem wi'me; ye knaw it's not reet-
Aw's sure ye de-
Te spend yor munny on Seturday neet
On nowt but spree.
Cum hyem wi' me tiv a heart that's warm:
Cum wi' one that 'ill de ye ne harm;
An' ye'll find it's the best
If ye'll only cum hyem wi' me!

-Joe Wilson
