The Lyrics
How high was I each morn ta' see
My lass come o'er yon hill
We tripped together, she an' me
Wasted but with good will
Ah, the 'shroom
The bonny, bonny 'shroom!
The 'shroom grow'd on cow dung piles
One an' I'd be,
In my brain country,
Girning mah Scottish smile!
We neither heard of news nor man
While in drunkness we lay
We gathered fungus sweet at night
Got stoned free all the day
Ah, the 'shroom
The bonny, bonny 'shroom!
The 'shroom grow'd on cow dung piles
One an' I'd be,
In my brain country,
Girning mah Scottish smile!
Not ate, so she would famished be
Sang, "Deary, feed me this 'morn!"
I fed her such a mushroom cap
Then heather's bed was ourn
Ah, the 'shroom
The bonny, bonny 'shroom!
The 'shroom grow'd on cow dung piles
One an' I'd be,
In my brain country,
Girning mah Scottish smile!
Farewell, ye cow dung piles, farewell
Farewell all pleasures there
No longer I dare try again
Fungus shite's raisin' there
Ah, the 'shroom
The bonny, bonny 'shroom!
The 'shroom grow'd on cow dung piles
One an' I'd be,
In my brain country,
Girning mah Scottish smile!
My lass come o'er yon hill
We tripped together, she an' me
Wasted but with good will
Ah, the 'shroom
The bonny, bonny 'shroom!
The 'shroom grow'd on cow dung piles
One an' I'd be,
In my brain country,
Girning mah Scottish smile!
We neither heard of news nor man
While in drunkness we lay
We gathered fungus sweet at night
Got stoned free all the day
Ah, the 'shroom
The bonny, bonny 'shroom!
The 'shroom grow'd on cow dung piles
One an' I'd be,
In my brain country,
Girning mah Scottish smile!
Not ate, so she would famished be
Sang, "Deary, feed me this 'morn!"
I fed her such a mushroom cap
Then heather's bed was ourn
Ah, the 'shroom
The bonny, bonny 'shroom!
The 'shroom grow'd on cow dung piles
One an' I'd be,
In my brain country,
Girning mah Scottish smile!
Farewell, ye cow dung piles, farewell
Farewell all pleasures there
No longer I dare try again
Fungus shite's raisin' there
Ah, the 'shroom
The bonny, bonny 'shroom!
The 'shroom grow'd on cow dung piles
One an' I'd be,
In my brain country,
Girning mah Scottish smile!

Ah, 'tis a bonny tune.
I'll bet ye heard the joke about the Scotsman and his kilt. Twas made into a bawdy song. You know someone with my name knows a few.
Enchanting! Especially when you eat the 'shrooms.
DKTOS. I think you´re short of oxygen Johnny, you´re cramming out strange hallucingenic stuff today, fetch the CPAP, CPAP Daddy.
Thank you, John, Rick, Pat, and Peter. It's just a Scottish cow-flop-fungus-eatin' kind of day.
Don't know the original song so I'll let the pacing slide: fives all round for a good folk sendup!
Thank you, Ingeborg!
