[verse]
Dm                        Dm
Donald's gane up the hill hard and hungry,
Dm                         C
Donald comes down the hill wild and angry;
Dm                    Dm
Donald will clear the gouk's nest cleverly,
A#              C         Dm        C
Here's to king James and Donald MacGillavry!


Dm                     Dm
Come like a weighbauk, Donald MacGillavry,
Dm                     C
Come like a weighbauk, Donald MacGillavry,
Dm                     Dm
Balance them fair, and balance them cleverly:
A#          C            Dm        C
Off wi'the counterfeit, Donald MacGillavry!


Dm                         Dm
Donald's run o'er the hill but his tether, man,
Dm                 C
As he were wud, or stang'd wi' an ether, man;
Dm                          Dm
When he comes back, there's some will look merrily:
A#              C         Dm        C
Here's to King James and Donald MacGillavry!


Dm                  Dm
Come like a weaver, Donald MacGillavry,
Dm                  C
Come like a weaver, Donald MacGillavry,
Dm                     Dm
Pack on your back, and elwand sae cleverly;
A#             C           Dm        C
Gie them full measure, my Donald MacGillavry.


Dm                      Dm
Donald has foughten wi' rief and roguery;
Dm                     C
Donald has dinner'd wi banes and beggary,
Dm                 Dm
Better it were for Whigs and Whiggery
A#           C          Dm        C
Meeting the devil than Donald MacGillavry.


Dm                  Dm
Come like a tailor, Donald MacGillavry,
Dm                  C
Come like a tailor, Donald MacGillavry,
Dm                      Dm
Push about, in and out, thimble them cleverly,
A#              C         Dm        C
Here's to King James and Donald MacGillavry.

Dm                       Dm
Donald's the callan that brooks nae tangleness;
Dm                        C
Whigging and prigging and a'newfangleness,
Dm                    Dm
They maun be gane: he winna be baukit, man:
A#           C           Dm          C
He maun hae justice, or faith he'll tak it, man.


Dm                   Dm
Come like a cobbler, Donald MacGillavry,
Dm                   C
Come like a cobbler, Donald MacGillavry;
Dm                            Dm
Beat them, and bore them, and lingel them cleverly,
A#           C         Dm        C
Up wi' King James and Donald MacGillavry.


Dm                   Dm
Donald was mumpit wi mirds and mockery;
Dm                     C
Donald was blinded wi' blads o' property;
Dm                  Dm
Arles ran high, but makings were naething, man,
A#         C         Dm          C
Lord, how Donald is flyting and fretting, man.


(Dm) N.C.
Come like the devil, Donald MacGillavry,

Come like the devil, Donald MacGillavry;

Skelp them and scaud them that proved sae unbritherly,
                               Dm
Up wi King James and Donald MacGillavry!
