por a' their religious pother,
Baith kirkmen, seceders, and a%
They'll thraw their opinions a' throuther,
And thresh the invaders awa.
Whigs and tories and a',
Tories and whigs and a',
Will drown their debates in a bumper,
And chase the invaders awa.
The black fouk frae Symmie, that weir us.
Wi' mony braw lang-nebbit words,
Sude ony great danger come near us,
Their books they will niffer for swords :
And if this mischievous birkie
Into our dear country sude come,
They'll cast a' their creeds at their a— s,
And, row-de-dow, follow the drum.
Wigs and cassocks and a',
Cassocks and wigs and a',
They'll cleek up a rusty brown Jennet,
And thunder the rascals awa.
The wives and the lasses enraged,
The grit anes as weel as the poor,
Their husbands and sweethearts engaged,
They'll kick up a terrible stour.
If ever they see the Sans Cullottes,
Their ladyships winna be slaw
