Unlike one of my Scottish grandma's songs, that we had to relegate to the no longer acceptable pile.

Because of her accent, I always thought she was singing:

Wee MacGregor
He's like an egger
His nose is painted red, white and blue
He wears a tammy
To please his Mammy
So what do you think of Wee MacGregor noo?

It was only when my children were small and I was singing it to them, that it finally finally sunk in, when I asked myself, "what's an egger?...... and the the realization finally sunk in....
