The shoemaker

Language: English

 Shoemaker, shoemaker, are ye within?
 A fal a fall addie fallee!
 Hae ye got shoes to fit me so trim
 For a kiss in the morning early?
 O fair may, come in and see,
 A fal a fall addie fallee!
 I've got but ae pair and I'll gie them to thee
 For a kiss in the morning early.
 He's ta'en her in behind the bench,
 A fal a fall addie fallee!
 And there he has fitted his own pretty wench.
 With a kiss in the morning early.
