Tommy Makem Stuttering Lovers
A wee bit over the Lee, me lads
A wee bit over the green
The birds went into the poor man's corn
I fear they'll never be suh, suh, suh, suh, seen me
lads
I fear they'll never be seen
Then out came a bonny wee lass
And he was one so fair
And she went into the poor man's corn
To see if the birds were the, the, the, the, there, me
lads
To see if the birds were there
Then out came a bonny wee lad
And he was a fisherman's son
And he went into the poor man's corn, me lads
To see where the birds had ruh, ruh, ruh, ruh, run me
lads
To see where the birds had run
Well, he kissed her on the cheek, me lads
And kissed her on the chin
'Ah, don't be kissing me, my wee lad
I fear it is a si, si, si, si, sin my lad
I fear it is a sin'
Well, he kissed her once and he kissed her twice
He kissed her ten times o'er
'It's nice to be kissing a bonny wee lass
Who's never been kissed befuh, fuh, fuh, fuh, fore me
lads
Who's never been kissed before'
Then out came a poor old man
And he was tattered and tore
'Ah that the way to be minding my birds
I'll do it myself in the muh, muh, muh, muh, muh, muh,
muh, muh, morn me lads
I'll do it myself in the morn'
