Classic Poem

When the sheep are in the pen And the cows are in the shed
When the pigs are fed agen And a' the fowls gane bed
Then I gang to meet my laddie at the stackyard gate
I scarce can tie my hat on laddie For I'm loath to make him wait

Then I gang to meet my laddie At the mossy stackyard gate
I tie my bonnet hasty on 'cause I winna make him wait
Though my boots be all untied The time is getting late
And to stop I canna bide 'Cause I winna make him wait

Now the kyes cum hame And the sheep are in the pen
And frae the hives straw warm They've taen the comb agen
I will gang and seek my laddie T'were a sin to make him wait
And he'll cuddle me among the straw At the stackyard gate
