Tail Todle Lyrics

Tail Toddle

Chad Mitchell Trio

Album: Mighty Day On Campus

[Variations of the words are often seen,

but this is the CMT version,]

Spoken:

Speaking of dirty Scotch songs...

Here's one called "Tail Toddle" and

involves a wee lass named Tammie.

Chorus:

Tail todle, tail todle;

Tammie gars my tail todle;

But an' ben we diddle-doddle,

Tammie gars my tail todle.

Tail todle, tail todle;

Tammie gars my tail todle;

But an' ben we diddle-doddle,

Tammie gars my tail todle.

----

When I'm deid and oot o' date;

When I'm seik and full o' trouble;

When I'm weel I stap aboot,

An' Tammie gars my tail todle.

[Chorus]

Jessie Mack she gae'd a plack,

Helen Wallace gae'd a boddle;

Quo' the bride, "Its over little

For tae mend a broken doddle."

[Chorus]

Our gudewife held o'er to Fife,

For tae buy a coal-riddle;

Lang 'for she came back again,

Tammie gar't my tail todle.

[Chorus]
