History is reflected in the words of many songs of many folk groups

   Andrew An' His Cutty Gun - - Chorus: - Blythe, blythe, blythe was she, - Blythe was she but and ben, - An' weel she lo'ed it in her neive, - But better when it slippit in. - When a' the lave gaed tae their bed, - And I sat up to clean the shoon, - O wha think ye cam jumpin' ben - But Andrew and his cutty gun. - Chorus: - - - 2. Or e'er I wist he laid me back, - And up my gamon to my chin, - And ne'er a word to me he spak, - But liltit oot his cutty gun.
