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


Am                     Am
Come like a weighbauk, Donald MacGillavry,
Am                     G
Come like a weighbauk, Donald MacGillavry,
Am                     Am
Balance them fair, and balance them cleverly:
F          G            Am        G
Off wi'the counterfeit, Donald MacGillavry!


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


Am                  Am
Come like a weaver, Donald MacGillavry,
Am                  G
Come like a weaver, Donald MacGillavry,
Am                     Am
Pack on your back, and elwand sae cleverly;
F             G           Am        G
Gie them full measure, my Donald MacGillavry.


Am                      Am
Donald has foughten wi' rief and roguery;
Am                     G
Donald has dinner'd wi banes and beggary,
Am                 Am
Better it were for Whigs and Whiggery
F           G          Am        G
Meeting the devil than Donald MacGillavry.


Am                  Am
Come like a tailor, Donald MacGillavry,
Am                  G
Come like a tailor, Donald MacGillavry,
Am                      Am
Push about, in and out, thimble them cleverly,
F              G         Am        G
Here's to King James and Donald MacGillavry.

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


Am                   Am
Come like a cobbler, Donald MacGillavry,
Am                   G
Come like a cobbler, Donald MacGillavry;
Am                            Am
Beat them, and bore them, and lingel them cleverly,
F           G         Am        G
Up wi' King James and Donald MacGillavry.


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


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

Come like the devil, Donald MacGillavry;

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