Raws o OAPs
Bauldy heids
Like golf baas
Wytin the knell o the final putter.
Wyte tho!
Ken yon face!
Wee Jimmy!
Ken him onywye!
Jug lugs, pug snoot
A grin like meltin butter.
Fit's that ye say?
Yon loon's Wee Jimmy's grandson?
Name o God
In't it faist
Foo years rin
Doon the gutter!
Daith isnae blate
Tae sweel fowk doon the grate
Tae clear awa a generation's clutter.
