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


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


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


D#m                  D#m
Come like a weaver, Donald MacGillavry,
D#m                  C#
Come like a weaver, Donald MacGillavry,

Pack on your back, and elwand sae cleverly;
B             C#           D#m        C#
Gie them full measure, my Donald MacGillavry.


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


D#m                  D#m
Come like a tailor, Donald MacGillavry,
D#m                  C#
Come like a tailor, Donald MacGillavry,
D#m                      D#m
Push about, in and out, thimble them cleverly,

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


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


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


(D#m) N.C.
Come like the devil, Donald MacGillavry,

Come like the devil, Donald MacGillavry;

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