Day
  song—o tibbie, i hae seen the day
  tune—“invercauld's reel, or strathspey.”
  choir.—o tibbie, i hae seen the day,
  ye wadna been sae shy;
  for laik o' gear ye lightly me,
  but, trowth, i care na by.
  yestreen i met you on the moor,
  ye spak na, but gaed by like stour;
  ye geck at me because i'm poor,
  but fient a hair care i.
  o tibbie, i hae seen the day, c.
  when coming hame on sunday last,
  upon the road as i cam past,
  ye snufft and ga'e your head a cast—
  but trowth i care't na by.
  o tibbie, i hae seen the day, c.
  i doubt na, lass, but ye may think,
  because ye hae the name o' clink,
  that ye can please me at a wink,
  whene'er ye like to try.
  o tibbie, i hae seen the day, c.

  wha follows ony saucy quean,
  that looks sae proud and high.

  altho' a lad were e'er sae smart,
  if that he want the yellow dirt,
  ye'll cast your head anither airt,
  and answer him fu' dry.

  but, if he hae the name o' gear,
  ye'll fasten to him like a brier,
  tho' hardly he, for sense or lear,
  be better than the kye.
  o tibbie, i hae seen the day, c.
  but, tibbie, lass, tak' my advice:
  your daddie's gear maks you sae nice;
  the deil a ane wad speir your price,
  were ye as poor as i.
  o tibbie, i hae seen the day, c.
  there lives a lass beside yon park,
  i'd rather hae her in her sark,
  than you wi' a' your thousand mark;
  that gars you look sae high.
