Learn how to die
And when
That's it isn't it
As I was walking
All alane
I heard twa corbies
Makin mane
And one ontae
The other did say
Where shall we gang 'n
Dine the day
Where shall we gang 'n
Dine the day'oo
In behind yun
Oul fail dyke
I wot there lies
A new slain knight
And naebody kens
That he lies there
But his hawk
And his hound
And his lady fair
But his hawk
And his hound
And his lady fair
His hawk is tae
The hunting gane
His hound
To fetch the
Wildfowl hane
His lady
Has taken another mate
So we can
Mack our dinner
Sweet
So we can
Mack our dinner
Sweet
You can sit
On his white breast bone
And I'll pick
Out his bonny blue een
And with a lock
Of his yellow hair
We'll theek our nest
When it grows bare
We'll theek our nest
When it grows bare
Many's a one
For him macs mane
Naebody kens
Where he hath gane
And through his white bones
When they grow bare
The wind shall blow
Forever mare
The wind shall blow
Forever mare
