My Wife's A Winsome Wee Thing
Melody - "My Wife's a Wanton Wee Thing", from Mitchell's Highland Fair, 1731Robert Burns, 1792
Chorus:
She is a winsome wee thing,
She is a handsome wee thing,
She is a lo'esome wee thing,
This dear wee wife o' mine.
I never saw a fairer,
I never lo'ed a dearer,
And neist my heart I'll wear her,
For fear my jewel tine,
Chorus
2. The warld's wrack we share o't;
The warstle and the care o't;
Wi' her I'll blythely bear it,
And think my lot divine.
Chorus
