Thread Name: Origins:Jock McGraw/Stoutest Man in the Forty-Twa
Subject: RE: Jock McGraw
Rick Fielding is right: the song, "The Stoutest Man in the Forty-Twa", was recorded by Robin Hall and Jimmy McGregor in the 60s. I can recall some of it:
The wind may blaw, the cock may craw, The rain may rain and the snaw may snaw, But ye winnae frichten Jock McGraw, The stoutest man in the Forty-Twa.
I have a feeling that Alistair McDonald may also have recorded the song.
