Back to Hey Ca' Thro'


HEY, CA' THROUGH. Scottish, Air (9/8 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). One part (Cole): AB (Gatherer): AABB (Kennedy). The song (whose title means ('Hey, work away') appears in John Johnson's Scots Musical Museum [1], vol. 4 (1792, p. 405). The lyric, which is usually attributed to Robert Burns, begins:

Up wi' carls of Dysart,............carls = old men
And the lads o' Buckh'ven
And the Kimmers o' Largo,......kimmer = gossips
And the lasses o' Leven.
Hey ca' thro' ca' thro'
For we hae mickle a do,
Hey ca' thro' ca' thro'
for we hae mickle a do.

John Glen (1900) could find no earlier appearance of the melody.
