  1. As I cam in by Turrah Market
    Turrah Market for to fee
    I fell in wi’ a farmer cheil
    The Barnyard O' Delgaty
    Linten Adie Toorin Adie
    Linten Adie Toorin Ee
    Linten Lowrin Lowrin Lowrin
    The Barnyards O'Delgaty
  2. He promised me the ae best pair
    That e’r there was in the kinta roon
    When I got tae the barnyards
    There was naethin’ there but skin and bone
    Chorus
    The auld black horse sat on his rump
    The auld grey mare sat on her whine
    For a’ that I could hup and crack
    They wouldna rise at yokin' time
    Chorus
  3. When I gang tae the kirk on Sunday
    Mony’s the bonnie lass I see
    Sittin’ by her faithers side
    And winkin’ o'er the pews at me
    Chorus
  4. I can drink and no be drunk
    I can fecht and no be slain
    I can lie wi' another mans lass
    And still be welcome tae me ain
    Chorus
  5. Noo my cannie is brunt oot
    My snorters fairlie on the wean
    Fare ye weel ye barnyards
    Ye’ll nev er catch me here again
    Chorus
