Robert Burns
Coming Through the Rye

Coming through the rye, poor body
Coming through the rye
She draggled all her petticoats
Coming through the rye!

O Jenny is all wet, poor body
Jenny is seldom dry:
She draggled all her petticoats
Coming through the rye!

Should a body meet a body
Coming through the rye
Should a body kiss a body
Need a body cry?

Should a body meet a body
Coming through the glen
Should a body kiss a body
Need the world know?
