Jim Dixon's contribution above, cites the lyrics of Matt McGinn's reworking of the rhyme into a more complete song. Jim may have got the lyrics from some printed source, but I can't help feeling that the line "For they both took a fancy tae a lassie, Faye Mulguye," should probably be "For they both took a fancy tae a lassie, **fae Milngavie**" - sounds the same, but.... From memory I also think that the line "Then he shook off his whiskers and he sprinkled bloody cologne." was: "Then he shaved off a' his whiskers and he sprinkled eau-de-cologne." Cheers Steven
