John Gaudie was a fine young man in shetland it was told
Many's the crowd in Lerwick Town his fiddle and he did hold
They've danced it up and they've danced it down
as he fiddled his tunes around
Of all the played in Shetland Isles no better could be found.
Chorus...
When John broke the prison door
The jailer had never seen his like before
He ran back to the Levenwick shore and wrote himself a tune...
