The Travelling People

My mother said I never should...

I am tired of always having to shift...

Born in the middle of the afternoon...

If you took a traveller...

Don't I wish the old times would come back again...

I like to settle in the wintertime...

We never did travel much in the wintertime...

The auld ways are changing...

These days have gone...

I mean, we're fed up with gypsies living in our area...

People get the impression, o those gypsies they're rogues...

Thy can't read or write...

Bloody isn't it...

Can't see no way out...
