The original song was written by Tom Johnston who wrote many music hall songs in the late 19th century/early 20th. My Granny gave me the original words that had been passed to her by Mary Johnston, Tom's daughter. They are a little different from the versions that I've seen in Mudcat, but close. Cheers John |

Says I "Ma bonnie lassie, if ye're gangin ower that airt A'll drive ye intae Glasga in ma soor mulk cairt." Sometimes "Baurlin" is given as "Borwee", but I believe that Baurlin was the name of a farmsteading in that area. |
