What Can a Young Lassie Do Wi’ An Auld Man Ewan MacColl

[Chorus]
What can a young lassie, what shall a young lassie
What can a young lassie do wi' an auld man?
What can a young lassie, what shall a young lassie
What can a young lassie do wi' an auld man?

[Verse 1]
Bad luck on the penny that tempted my minnie
To sell her puir Jenny for siller an' lan'
Bad luck on the penny that tempted my minnie
To sell her puir Jenny for siller an' lan'!

[Chorus]
What can a young lassie, what shall a young lassie
What can a young lassie do wi' an auld man?
What can a young lassie, what shall a young lassie
What can a young lassie do wi' an auld man?

[Verse 2]
He's always compleenin' frae mornin' to e'enin'
He hoasts and he hirples the weary day lang;
He's doylt and he's dozin, his blude it is frozеn, -
O, dreary's the night wi' a crazy auld man!

[Chorus]
What can a young lassie, what shall a young lassiе
What can a young lassie do wi' an auld man?
What can a young lassie, what shall a young lassie
What can a young lassie do wi' an auld man?
