Cock Up Your Beaver is a song and poem by Robert Burns, written in 1792.[1] It is written in Scottish dialect and the beaver refers to a kind of hat. It was based on an older song, published as "Johnny, cock up thy Beaver". It is widely claimed that this is found in The Dancing Master, a collection of folk tunes published by John Playford of London in 1657.[2][3] However, this is disputed by Scottish music scholar John Glen who states it first appears in the 1686 edition of "The Dancing Master".[4] It was originally published in 1792 in volume 4 of the Scots Musical Museum[2] and again in 1821 in a compilation by James Hogg, with four verses and musical notation of a tune.[5] The original version was English, and ridiculed Scotsmen who settled in London after the accession of James VI to the throne of England,[6] possibly satirizing the costumes of highland chiefs entering the lowlands. [7]The song, hand-written by Burns, is in the Scots Musical Museum.[2][3] A piece entitled Carolan's Variations on the Scottish Air "Cock Up Your Beaver" is composition no. 204 in the oeuvre of Turlough O'Carolan.[8] References1. ^{{Cite web| title = BBC - Robert Burns Works - Cock Up Your Beaver|author=Iain Macdonald| accessdate = 2009-08-24| url = http://www.bbc.co.uk/robertburns/works/cock_up_your_beaver/}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite book|last=Johnson|first=James|title=Scots musical museum|year=1792|publisher=James Johnson|location=Edinburgh|page=319|url=http://digital.nls.uk/87798244}} 3. ^1 {{citation|publisher=W.
