English text

Fresh aa come frae Sandgate street,
Dolli, Dolli,
Ma best freends here to meet,
Dolli the dillen dol.

The Black Cuffs is gawn away,
Dolli, Dolli,
And that'll be a crying day
Dolli the dillen dol.

The Green Cuffs is cummin' in,
Dolli, Dolli,
And that'll make the lasses sing
Dolli the dillen dol.
