[If ye've been up ayont Dundee]

If ye've been up ayont Dundee,
Ye maun hae heard about the plea
That's raised by Sandy Grant's trustee
For the mill that belang'd to Sandy.
For Sandy lent the man his mill,
An' the mill that was lent was Sandy's mill,
An' the man got the len' o' Sandy's mill,
An' the mill it belang'd to Sandy.
A' sense o' sin an' shame is gone,
They're claiming noo a lien on
The mill that belang'd to Sandy.
But Sandy lent the man his mill,
An' the mill that was lent was Sandy's mill,
An' the man got the len o' Sandy's mill,
An' the mill it belong'd to Sandy.
