[intro}
edinburgh, hame of kings
is famous noo for other things
for wi’ the night the darkness brings
the fear of burke and hare

[chorus]
up and doon and roond the stair
mind your back frae burke and hare
burke’s the k!ller and hare’s the thief
and knox the butcher that buys the beef

[verse]
the [?] [?] was for the blessed
who ought to lie in peaceful rest
to look for [?] fraeoot the nest
come godless burke and hare

[chorus]
up and doon and roond the stair
mind your back frae burke and hare
burke’s the k!ller and hare’s the thief
and knox the butcher that buys the beef

[verse]
and if the bobby on the beach
should spoil the hunt for charnel meat
there’s fresher pickings in the street
and they’re the boys to find it
[chorus]
up and doon and roond the stair
mind your back frae burke and hare
burke’s the k!ller and hare’s the thief
and knox the butcher that buys the beef

[verse]
wi’ ready will they did consign
a score of bodies tae the brine
these [?] souls afore their time
they sent untae their maker

[chorus]
up and doon and roond the stair
mind your back frae burke and hare
burke’s the k!ller and hare’s the thief
and knox the butcher that buys the beef

[verse]
a’ catch’d they were at last by law
“hang them high,” says yin and a’
“the de’il they served can tak the twa
if e’en he can fool them.”

[chorus]
up and doon and roond the stair
mind your back frae burke and hare
burke’s the k!ller and hare’s the thief
and knox the butcher that buys the beef
up and doon and roond the stair
mind your back frae burke and hare
burke’s the k!ller and hare’s the thief
and knox the butcher that buys the beef
