for a' his gold and white monie,
and auld men shall never daunton me.
to daunton me, &c.
his gear may buy him kye and yowes,
his gear may buy him glens and knowes;
but me he shall not buy nor fee,
for an auld man shall never daunton me.
to daunton me, &c.
he hirples twa fauld as he dow,
wi' his teethless gab and his auld beld pow,
and the rain rains down frae his red blear'd e'e;
that auld man shall never daunton me.
to daunton me, &c.
