James Madison Carpenter recorded this in Lochcarron in 1931. I cannot tell if this is the singer's own making, or well known. Looks life the singer's translation? Any advice welcomed. Donald the Dancer, when we saw him coming His masts would be bending and his ship snoring through the water And if he get a dram when he land He'll cut a figure on the pavement. |
