Loading...

[verse 1]
oh, of aw the trades that i dae ken, oh, the beggin is the best
for when a beggar’s weary he can sit him doun and rest
tae the beggin i will go, will go, tae the beggin i will go

[verse 2]
and i will tae the tailor wi a wab o hodden gray
and gar him mak a cloak for me to hap me night and day
tae the beggin i will go, will go, tae the beggin i will go

[verse 3]
and i will tae the cobbler and i’ll gar him sort my shuin
an inch thick tae the bottom and cluitered weel abuin
tae the beggin i will go, will go, tae the bеggin i will go

[verse 4]
and i will tae the tanner and i’ll gar him mak a dish
and it maun haud three chappins, for i cannaе dae wi less
tae the beggin i will go, will go, tae the beggin i will go

[verse 5]
[?] i begin my trade, i’ll let my beard grow strang
nor pare my nails this year or day for the beggars wear them lang
tae the beggin i will go, will go, tae the beggin i will go

[verse 6]
and i’ll gang seek my lodgins afore that it grows dark
acause when the guidman’s sittin doun and new+hame frae his wark
tae the beggin i will go, will go, tae the beggin i will go
[verse 7]
and mebbe the guidman will say, “guidman, ye’ll hae yer meal
ye’re welcome tae your brose the nicht, likewise your breid and kail,”
tae the beggin i will go, will go, tae the beggin i will go

[verse 8]
nou if beggin be as good a trade, and as i hope it may
it’s time that i was oot o here and haudin doun the brae
tae the beggin i will go, will go, tae the beggin i will go

[instrumental: “the periwig”]

[verse 1]
oh, of aw the trades that i dae ken, oh, the beggin is the best
for when a beggar’s weary he can sit him doun and rest
tae the beggin i will go, will go, tae the beggin i will go
