94. Here's his Health in Water

 ALTHO’ my back be at the wa’,
 And tho’ he be the fautor;
Altho’ my back be at the wa’,
 Yet, here’s his health in water.
O wae gae by his wanton sides,
 Sae brawlie’s he could flatter;
Till for his sake I’m slighted sair,
 And dree the kintra clatter:
But tho’ my back be at the wa’,
 And tho’ he be the fautor;
But tho’ my back be at the wa’,
 Yet here’s his health in water!
