Back to Kail and Knockit Corn
KAIL AND KNOCKIT CORN. AKA and see "Bob of Fettercairn (The)," "Come Kiss with Me Come Clap with Me," "Had I the Wyte," "Newburn Lads." Shetland. The title means 'cabbage and bruised oats'. The 'k' is pronounced in the word 'knockit' in old tradition in Shetland, according to Tom Anderson, as with most 'kn-' words there. The tune is the Scots' "Bob o' Fettercairn," transplanted to the Shetland idiom.
I'll be kissed and du'll be kissed
We'll all be kissed the morn
The best maet that's in the house
Is kail and knockit corn. ... (Cooke)
