HAD AWAY FRAE ME, DONALD. AKA - "Had Awa' Frae Me, Donald," "Haud Awa' Frae Me Donald."Scottish, Air (whole time). The song is ascribed to Daniel Grant in the McLean Collection (1772, p. 1), published by James Johnson in Edinburgh. The first verse (given in Joseph Ritson's Scottish Songs, 1714) goes:
O Will you hae ta tartan plaid,
Or will you hae ta ring, mattam?
Or will you hae ta kiss o' me?
And dats ta pretty ting, mattam.
Had awa', bide awa',
Had awa' frae me, Donald,
I'll neither kiss nor hae a ring,
Nae tartan plaids for me, Donald.
The song was also printed in Allan Ramsay's Tea-Table Miscellany (1750, p. 152).
