Thread Name: Lyr/Chords Req: My Minnie Ment My Auld Breeks
Subject: MY MOTHER MEN'D MY BREEKS ?!*??
My father (88) was trying to remember a song his mother used to sing to him in rural Perthshire when he was a wee lad.
The only words he can recall are as follows:

My mother men't (mended)my breeks and sent me tae the smiddy, to get (somebodys name)horse shod.

A bit short on substance, but at 88 he is doing well to remember the song at all.
Any help would be much appreciated.
