    tune—“push about the jorum.”
    does haughty gaul invasion threat?
    then let the louns beware, sir;
    there's wooden walls upon our seas,
    and volunteers on shore, sir:
    the nith shall run to corsincon,
    and criffel sink in solway,
    ere we permit a foreign foe
    on british ground to rally!
    we'll ne'er permit a foreign foe
    on british ground to rally!
    o let us not, like snarling curs,
    in wrangling be divided,
    till, slap! come in an unco loun,
    and wi' a rung decide it!
    be britain still to britain true,
    amang ourselves united;
    for never but by british hands
    maun british wrangs be righted!
    no! never but by british hands
    shall british wrangs be righted!
    the kettle o' the kirk and state,
    perhaps a clout may fail in't;
    but deil a foreign tinkler loun
    shall ever ca'a nail in't.
    our father's blude the kettle bought,
    and wha wad dare to spoil it;
    by heav'ns! the sacrilegious dog
    shall fuel be to boil it!
    by heav'ns! the sacrilegious dog
    shall fuel be to boil it!
    the wretch that would a tyrant own,
    and the wretch, his true-born brother,
    who would set the mob aboon the throne,
    may they be damn'd together!
    who will not sing “god save the king,”
    shall hang as high's the steeple;
    but while we sing “god save the king,”
    we'll ne'er forget the people!
    but while we sing “god save the king,”
    we'll ne'er forget the people!
