Coming Through The Rye.

By Robert Burns

Tune - "Coming through the rye." I. Coming through the rye, poor body, Coming through the rye, She draiglet a' her petticoatie, Coming through the rye. Jenny's a' wat, poor body, Jenny's seldom dry; She draiglet a' her petticoatie, Coming through the rye. II. Gin a body meet a body Coming through the rye, Gin a body kiss a body Need a body cry? III. Gin a body meet a body Coming through the glen, Gin a body kiss a body Need the world ken? Jenny's a' wat, poor body; Jenny's seldom dry; She draiglet a' her petticoatie, Coming through the rye.
