Song—Hey, the Dusty Miller

by Robert Burns, 1788

Hey, the dusty Miller,
  And his dusty coat,
He will win a shilling,
  Or he spend a groat:
Dusty was the coat,
  Dusty was the colour,
Dusty was the kiss
  That i gat frae the Miller.

Hey, the dusty Miller,
  And his dusty sack;
Leeze me on the calling
  Fills the dusty peck:
Fills the dusty peck,
  Brings the dusty siller;
I wad gie my coatie
  For the dusty Miller.
