Scottish Traditional Folk Music - Song Lyrics
Coulter's Candy

Chorus:
Ally bally, ally bally bee,
Sittin' on yer mammy's knee,
Greetin' for anither bawbee,
Tae buy some Coulter's Candy.

Here's auld Coulter comin' roon'
Wi' a basket on his croon
So here's a penny, noo ye rin doon
And buy some Coulter's candy.

Chorus

Ally bally, ally bally bee,
When ye grow up ye'11 gang tae sea
Makin' pennies for your daddie and me
Tae buy some Coulter's candy.

Chorus

Oor wee Annie's greetin' tae,
So whit can puir auld mammy dae?
But gie them a penny atween them twae
Tae buy some Coulter's Candy.

Chorus

Puir wee Jeannie she's lookin' affa' thin
A rickle o' banes covered ower wi' skin
Noo she's gettin' a wee double chin
Wi' sookin' Coulter's candy.

Chorus
