Dainty Davie from Choice Company by Pig's Ear
A Robbie Burns song Grant learned from the singers at 'Elsie's', the Queens Arms, Cowden Pound. We'll leave interpretation of Burn's intended meaning as an exercise for the listener, but bear in mind Burns has a certain reputation with the ladies. In lowland Scots dialect the word 'pow' refers to a head of curly hair.

Pig's Ear was a family folk group that entertained audiences from the late 1980s to 2011, with a mix of carefully collected and researched traditional folk, self-penned songs and creative musical arrangements. Based in Kent, near the Sussex & Surrey border, in 2003 they started a small festival 'The Pig's Ear Folk Ale' at Markbeech, Kent which is still going today - http://folkale.co.uk/
