O Can Ye Sew Cushions ?  audio clip
O can ye sew cushions and can ye sew sheets,
And can ye sing ballulow when the bairn greets ?
And hie and baw, birdie, and hie and baw, lamb
And hee and baw, birdie, my bonnie wee lamb
Hie-o, wie-o what will I do wi' ye ?
Black's the life that I lead wi' ye
Many o'you, little for to gi' ye
Hie-o, wie-o, what will I do wi' ye ?
I've placed my cradle on yon hilly top
And aye as the wind blew my cradle did rock
O hush-a-by, babie, O baw lily loo
And hee adn baw, birdie, my bonnie wee doo
Hie-o, wie-o what will I do wi' ye ?
Black's the life that I lead wi' ye
Many o'you, little for to gi' ye
Hie-o, wie-o, what will I do wi' ye ?
