The Orraman by
Alistair McDonald (won a prize in2002)
Ah'm juist the orraman aboot the place,fit
Tae bang in a fence stob wi the mell
Able tae tak the coos frae field tae byre,
Can drive a tractor, the combine an aa,
Yaise the graip tae muck oot a grumphie's stye
Ken barley frae oats,at a hunner yairds tell
The green o hey frae the gowd o straw
Come term time,at Whitsuntide,ah maun flit.
The hoose is wanted fur the fairmer's son.
Ma wages grudged forbye,cash flow is bad
The wife is scunnert wi glaur,hates the sicht,
Ma lassie wants places tae gang at nicht,
A college place is waiting fur ma lad
Ah doot the orraman's day is near done.
