Haud Your Tongue Dear Sally Lyrics - Andy M. Stewart

"Oh, hold your tongue, dear Sally, as i gang tae the town 

And I'll buy for you a jaunting car and a braw white muslin gown 

I'll buy for you a jaunting car and a braw white muslin gown 

And likewise a bonnie wee lap dog tae follow your jaunting car" 

"Oh, the de'il gang wi' your lap dog, you jaunting cars and all 

For I'd rather hae a young man tae row me fae the wall 

Oh I'd rather hae a young man wi' no a penny at all 

Before that I'd hae an old man tae row me fae the wall 

"For your pipes they're never in order, your chanter's no in tune 

And I wish that the devil would hae you and put a young man intae 

your room 

I wish that the devil would hae you and put a young man intae 

your room 

For I'd rather have a young man wi' no penny at all" 

And now the old man's dead and gone, but he's left her a gey fee 

He's left tae her ten thousand pounds and all of his lands sae 

free 

He's left tae her ten thousand pounds and all of his lands sae 

free 

And likewise a bonnie wee lap dog tae follow her jaunting car
