Ally bally bally bally bee
Sittin' on yer mammy's knee
Greetin' for a wee bawbee
Tae buy some Coulter's candy

Poor wee bairn yer lookin' awfy thin,
A' yer jaw is aw drawn in
Could it be wi sookin'
Wi sooking the Coulter's candy

Had a little nut tree
Nothing would it bear
But a silver nutmeg
And a golden pear

The Queen of Spain's daughter
Came to visit me
And all on account
Of my little nut tree

Ally bally bally bally bee
Sittin' on yer mamy's knee
Greetin' for a wee bawbee
Tae buy some Coulter's candy
