Eddi Reader Brose And Butter Lyrics

Gie my love brose, brose [brose = oatmeal and hot water]
Gie my love brose and b___er
Aye gie my love brose
Yestreen he wanted his supper [yestreen = yesterday evening]

Jenny was up at the laft [laft = loft]
Johnny was glad to be at her
A wind came oot o' the west [oot o' = out of]
Made all the windows to clatter
Gie my love brose...

A dow is a dainty dish [dow = pigeon]
The goose is hollow within
The sight would make you blush
But aw the fun is to finishing [aw = all]
Gie my love brose...

My daddie sent me to the mill
To pull my minnie some heather
And drive it intae yur fill
Yur welcome tae the leather
Gie my love brose...

A mouse is a merry wee beast
The moodiewark wants the een
And oh for a touch o the thing
I had in my nieve yestreen oh
Gie my love brose...

The lark she loves the grass
The hen she loves the stubble
And hey for the gardner lad
Tae gully away wi' his dibble
Gie my love brose...
