Donald's run o'er the hill but his tether, man,
As he were wud, or stang'd wi' an ether, man ;
When he comes back, there's some will look merrily
Here's to King James and Donald Macgillavry.
Come like a weaver, Donald Macgillavry,
Come like a weaver, Donald Macgillavry,
Pack on your back, and elwand sae cleverly ;
Gie them full measure, my Donald Macgillavry.
Donald has foughten wi' rief and roguery ;
Donald has dinner'd wi' banes and beggary:
Eetter it were for Whigs and Whiggery
Meeting the devil than Donald Macgillavry.
Come like a tailor, Donald Macgillavry,
Come like a tailor, Donald Macgillavry;
Push about, in and out, thimble them cleverly.
Here's to King James and Donald Macgillavry !
