bonny at morn.... "The sheep's in the meadow,
The kye's in the corn,
[Thou's ower lang in thy bed],
Bonny at morn.
The sheep's in the meadow,
The kye's in the corn,
[Thou's ower lang in thy bed],
Bonny at morn.
        
Chorus
Canny at night,
Bonny at morn,
[Thou's ower lang in thy bed],
Bonny at morn.
        
The bird's in the nest,
The trout's in the burn,
Thou hinders thy mother,
In many a turn.
(Repeat)
Canny at night etc.
        
We're all laid idle,
Wi' keeping the bairn,
The lad winnot work,
The lass winnot lairn,
(Repeat)
