Keep My Maidenheid

Hoo Can I Keep My Maidenheid?
(Tune - The Birks o' Abergeldie)

HOW can I keep my maidenhead,
My maidenhead, my maidenhead;
How can I keep my maidenhead,
Amang sae mony men, O.
The Captain bad a guinea for't,
A guinea for't, a guinea for't;
The Captain bad a guinea for't,
The Colonel he bad ten, O.

But I'll do as my minnie did,
My minnie did, my minnie did;
But I'll do as my minnie did,
For siller I'll hae nane, O.
I'll gie it to a bonie lad,
A bonie lad, a bonie lad;
I'll gie it to a bonie lad.
For just as gude again O.
An auld moulie maidenhead,
A maidenhead, a maidenhead;
An auld moulie maidenhead,
The weary wark I ken, O.
The stretchin' o't, the strivin' o't,
The borin' o't, the rivin' o't,
And ay the double drivin' o't,
The farther ye gang ben, O.
