{Verse]
                                     G        C
I am a Dundee weaver and I come fray bonny Dundee
                          D                G
I met a Glasga' fella and he cam' courting me
   C                          F            G
He took me oot a-walking doon by the Broomalaw
    F                   C                       G      C
And there the dirty wee rascal stole my thingamejiger awa'
     F                   C                       G      C
Aye, there the dirty wee rascal stole my thingamejiger awa'
 
{Verse]
                                   G      C
He took me on a picnic doon by the Rouken Glen
                                           D                     G
He showed to me the bonny wee birds and he showed me a bonny wee hen
   C                                      F            G
He show to me the bonny wee birds, fray a linnet tae a craw
       F                C                          G      C
And he showed to me the bird that stole my thingamejiger awa'
   F                C                          G      C
He showed to me the bird that stole my thingamejiger awa'
 
{Verse]
                                           G        C
Well, I'll go back to Dundee looking bonny neat and fair
                                   D                     G
I'll put on my buckle and shoe and tie up my bonny broon hair
C                              F                 G
I'll put on my corset teet tae mak' my body look small
    F                     C                           G        C
And wha' will ken frae my rosy cheeks that my thingamejiger's awa'
    F                     C                           G        C
And wha' will ken frae my rosy cheeks that my thingamejiger's awa'
 
{Verse] {spoken}
C
Now any you people are listening to this song,
C
I want tae remind you that up in Scotland we're very moralistic people.
C
And all our Scot's folk songs have got a strictly moral end.
C
And we're coming up to this moral now, folks, and the end.
C
Sae pay attention to any Dundee weaver, sae listen.
 
{Verse]
                                            G         C
Come all you Dundee weavers an' tak' this advise frae me
                      D               G
Never let a laddie an inch above your knee
C                                         F            G
Never stand at the back of yer clothes or up agin' the wall
    F                  C                            G        C
For if you do, you can safely say that your thingamejiger's awa'
    F                  C                            G        C
For if you do, you can safely say that your thingamejiger's awa'
