About
There was a lad was born in Kyle,
But what na day o' what na style,
I doubt it's hardly worth the while
To be sae nice wi' Robin.
Chorus
Robin was a rovin boy,
Rantin, rovin, rantin, rovin,
Robin was a rovin boy,
Rantin, rovin Robin!
Our monarch's hindmost year but ane
Was five-and-twenty days begun,
'Twas then a blast o' Janwar' win'
Blew hansel in on Robin!
Chorus
The gossip keekit in his loof,
Quo' she: - 'Wha lives'll see the proof,
This waly boy will be nae coof:
I think we'll ca' him Robin.'
Chorus
'He'll hae miisfortunes great an' sma',
But ay a heart aboon them a'.
He'll gie his Daddie's name a blaw,
We'll a' be proud o' Robin.'
