Maccoll Ewan
As I Came In By Fisherrow
AS I CAME IN BY FISHERROW
As I came in by Fisherrow, Musselburgh was near me
I threw off my mussel pock and courted with my deary
Up stairs, doon stairs, timmer stairs fears me
I thought it lang to lie ma lane when I`m sae near my deary
Oh hda her apron bidden doon, the kirk wad ne`er hae kent it
But since the word`s gane through the toon,
My dear I canna mend it
But ye maun mount the cutty stool and I maun mount the pillar
And that`s the way the poor folks dae, because they hae nae siller
from Ewan MacColl`s Folk Songs and Ballads of Scotland
