Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Twa heids are better than yin
The very last line is usually sung out of dialect to make it rhyme. Rather like a punch-line.
ie.
Antepenultimate line = "It's a terrible thing ye have done."
Last line            = "For two heads are better than one!"

That's how we have always sung it. Cheers, Joy
