May choiceft bleffings ftill attend
Each honeft-hearted open friend,
And calm and quiet be his end,
Be a* that's good before him !
May peace and plenty be his lot,
Peace and plenty, peace and plenty,
May peace and plenty be his lot,
And dainties a great ftore o'm !'
May peace and plenty be his lot,
Unftain'd by any vicious blot ?
And may he never want a groat
That's fond of Tullochgorum.
But for the difcontented fool,
"Who wants to be oppreffion's tool,
. May envy gnaw his rotten foul,
And blackefl fiends devour him !
My dole and forrow be his chance,
Dole and forrow, dole and forrow,
May dole and forrow be his chance,
And honeft fouls abhor him !
May dole and forrow be his chance,
And a* the ills that come frae France
Whoe'er he be that winna dance
The reel of Tullochgorum.
