Cannily, cannily, bonnie lal-a-bairnikie
Divn't ya cry, me lal pet
Whisht up tha greetin'
Your daddy is sleepin'
Oh it's no time to waken him yet.
Soon he'll be gan ta the shed for his engine
Soon he'll be driving his train through the night
Working for pennies for you, my lal-a-treasure
So curb ya noise, hinnie, tha daddy sleeps light.
When thou art grown tha shalt have than own engine
Fastest that ever was seen on the line
And aal of ar neighbors shall point to ar Johnnie
And know he's the king of the North Eastern Line
