Johnie Lad Cock Up Your Beaver lyrics

Johnie Lad, Cock Up Your Beaver 



(Robert Burns poem / Live on Peel Acres 01-22-04) 



When first my brave Johnie lad came to this town 

He had a blue bonnet that wanted the crown 

But now he has gotten a hat and a feather 

Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver 



Cock up your beaver, and cock it fu' sprush 

We'll over the border, and gie them a brush 

There's some folks there we'll teach better behaviour 

Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver 

Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver
