Wylde Nept Barnyards of Delgatty Lyrics

Barnyards of Delgatty
(Tradtional)

I came into Turrah market
Turrah market for to fe'
I fell in with a wealthy farmer
The barnyards o' Delgatty

Chorus-
Linta nanny to turrah nanny, Linta nanny turrah nay
Linta lowren lowren lowren
The barnyards o' Delgatty

They promised me me ain best horse
That ere I set my eyes upon
When I got to the barnyards
There was nothin' there but skin and bones
-chorus-

The old black horse sat on his side
The old grey mare set on her whine
All that I could whip and crack
They would not rise, till milkin' time

-chorus-

When I go to the church on Sunday,
Many's the bonny lass I see
Sittin' by her mother's side
But winkin' o'er the pews at me

-chorus-

I can drink and no be drunk
I can fight and no be slain
I can lay with another man's lass
And still be welcome to me ain (my own)

-chorus-

But now me candle is burnt out,
Me snotter's fairly on the wain
Fare ye well ye barnyards
You'll never see me here again

-chorus-
