William Topaz McGonagall - Little JamieWilliam Topaz McGonagall - Little Jamie
Work rating: Low


Ither laddies may ha`s finer claes, and may be better fed, But nane o` them a`has sic a bonnie curly heid, O sie a blythe blink in their e`e, As my ain curly fair-hair`d laddie, Little Jamie. When I gang oot tae tak` a walk wi` him, alang the Magdalen Green, It mak`s my heart feel lichtsome tae see him sae sharp and keen, And he pu`s the wee gowans, and gie`s them to me, My ain curly fair-hair`d laddie, Little Jamie. When he rises in the mornin` an` gets oot o` bed, He says, mither, mind ye`ll need tae toast my faither`s bread. For he aye gie`s me a bawbee; He`s the best little laddie that ever I did see, My ain curly fair-hair`d laddie, Little Jamie. When I gang oot tae tak` a walk alang the streets o` Dundee, And views a` the little laddies that I chance to see, Nane o` them a` seems sae lovely to me, As my ain curly fair-hair`d laddie, Little Jamie. The laddie is handsome and fair to be seen, He has a bonnie cheerie mou`, and taw blue e`en, And he prattles like an auld grandfaither richt merrily; He`s the funniest little laddie that ever I did see, My ain curly fair-hair`d Iaddie, Little Jamie. Whene`er that he kens I am coming hame frae my wark, He runs oot tae meet me as cheerful as the lark, And he says, faither, I`m wanting just a`e bawbee, My ain curly fair-hair`d laddie, Little Jamie.
