I'll. LOVE : HUMOROUS                     185
No. 207. O, Galloway Tarn cam here to woo.
Tune : Galloway Tarn Caledonian Pocket Companion, 1754, vi. p. 25.
O, Galloway Tam cam here to woo; I'd rather we'd gien him the brawnit cow; For our lass Bess may curse and ban The wanton wit o' Galloway Tam.
O, Galloway Tam cam here to shear; I'd rather we'd gien him the gude gray mare; He kist the gudewife and strack the gudeman; Aud that's the tricks o' Galloway Tam.
