Rattling Roaring Willie
Traditional
O, rattlin, roarin Willie
O, he held to the fair
An for to sell his fiddle
An buy some other ware;
But parting wi' his fiddle
The saut tear blin't his e'e-
And rattlin, roarin Willie
Ye're welcome hame to me
O Willie, come sell your fiddle
O, sell your fiddle sae fine!
O Willie, come sell your fiddle
And buy a pint o wine!
If I should sell my fiddle
The warl' would think I was mad;
For monie a rantin day
My fiddle an I hae had
As I cam by Crochallan
I cannilie keekit ben;
Rattlin, roaring Willie
Was sittin at yon boord-en';
Sitting at yon boord-en'
And amang guid companie;
Rattlin, roarin Willie
Ye're welcome hame to me
